Who are Apex Peptides
Apex Peptides is a US-based company specializing in 99%+ purity peptides for research use. We pride ourselves on our unwavering commitment to transparency and trust. Each peptide vial you purchase from us is linked to its batch’s Certificates of Analysis (COA) from independent third-party laboratories. These reports detail the results of the peptide you are holding in your hand, ensuring you have complete confidence in the purity and quality of the research peptides you receive. Our mission is your success in research.
What Are Peptides
Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, shorter than proteins, typically ranging from 2 to 50 amino acids. They serve various biological functions, including acting as hormones, enzymes, and signaling molecules, and can have antimicrobial properties. Peptides are synthesized naturally in living organisms and can also be created in the lab for research and medical applications. At Apex Peptides, we offer a range of high-quality research peptides designed for scientific and medical research. Our peptides are used in studies related to biochemistry, molecular biology, and pharmacology.
How are your peptides stored and delivered?
Our peptides are stored at below-freezing temperatures to preserve their potency, and supplied in lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder form, a state-of-the-art preparation method essential for preserving their integrity and effectiveness. For reconstitution, we recommend using Bacteriostatic Water (BAC Water), available for purchase with our peptides. Our frozen storage facilities and careful packaging ensures that our peptides maintain their exceptional quality from our facility to your laboratory.
Can I test your peptides with my own third-party lab?
Yes, and we will gladly replace any peptides used during the testing process!
We fully support independent product testing. If you opt to validate our products through a third-party laboratory, we are happy to replace any items used during the testing process. To initiate this, please share the test results along with your order number, and we will promptly replace the tested products at no cost. Our confidence in the quality of our products is reflected in our commitment to facilitating independent blind tests conducted by our valued customers.
Do you ship internationally?
At this time, we are only serving the United States. However, we are planning to expand into Europe shortly, so subscribe to our newsletter below and we’ll let you know as soon as we start accepting international orders!
How long does shipping take?
We recognize the importance of prompt delivery in research settings. This is why we have optimized our order processing system. Orders are usually processed and dispatched within 1-2 business days after confirmation. Standard shipping typically takes 3-5 business days, while expedited shipping usually arrives in 1-2 business days. Although these timeframes are standard, they are not guaranteed.
