Question 1

What are research peptides?

Accepted Answer

Research peptides are chains of amino acids supplied exclusively for laboratory research and analytical purposes. They are not medicines, supplements, or therapeutic products and are not intended for human or animal consumption.

Question 2

What purity levels do your products meet?

Accepted Answer

Our products are supplied as research-grade materials and are supported by third-party analytical testing such as HPLC-MS / LC-MS, where applicable. Certificates of Analysis (CoA) are available to verify purity, identity, and quality.

Question 3

How should research peptides be stored?

Accepted Answer

Storage requirements depend on the specific compound and its form. Generally, lyophilized (dry) peptides should be stored refrigerated at 2-8°C, protected from light and moisture. For long-term storage, some compounds may be stored at -20°C. Once reconstituted, storage conditions vary by compound and research protocol.

Question 4

Are certificates of analysis available?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Certificates of Analysis (CoA) and supporting laboratory documentation are available and can be accessed via the Lab Results page.

Question 5

Why are some details redacted on Certificates of Analysis?

Accepted Answer

All laboratory results published on Restore Peptides are independently verified prior to release by established third-party analytical laboratories. Certain reference identifiers (such as task numbers, submission IDs, or client-specific references) are intentionally redacted to protect supply-chain confidentiality and prevent third-party reports from being misused, misattributed, or linked outside their intended research context. This practice is standard within research material distribution. Redaction does not affect the validity, authenticity, or relevance of the analytical results provided.

Question 19

What happens if I order an in-stock item with a pre-order item?

Accepted Answer

If an order contains both in-stock and pre-order items, the entire order will be shipped together once the pre-order item is ready (typically 1-2 weeks). If you require in-stock items sooner, we recommend placing separate orders.

Question 20

Can I choose whether my parcel is left at my door or taken to the post office?

Accepted Answer

Yes. At checkout, you can choose between "Do Not Leave Unattended" (the default) or "Leave in a Safe Place". If you choose Do Not Leave, the carrier will card it and hold it at the nearest USPS post office for you to collect. If you choose Leave in a Safe Place, the courier will leave it at your door or another safe spot.

Question 21

What happens if my parcel goes missing after being left in a safe place?

Accepted Answer

If you selected "Leave in a Safe Place" at checkout, you accepted responsibility for the parcel once it was delivered to your address. Restore Peptides is not liable for parcels that go missing, are stolen, or are damaged after being left unattended at your request. We recommend selecting "Do Not Leave Unattended" if you are concerned about parcel security.

Question 22

Tracking says "Delivered" but I never received my parcel. What do I do?

Accepted Answer

First, check around your property, with neighbours, and in any safe spots the carrier may have left it. If you selected "Leave in a Safe Place" at checkout, you accepted responsibility for the parcel once delivered. If you selected "Do Not Leave Unattended" and the carrier left it anyway, the carrier is at fault — please lodge a formal investigation with USPS at usps.com If you selected "Signature on Delivery" and no valid signature was obtained, lodge an investigation with USPS and contact our support team.

Question 23

My tracking has not updated and my parcel seems lost in transit. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

If tracking has not shown any updates for an extended period and the parcel does not show as delivered, contact us within 14 days of the estimated delivery date. We will lodge an investigation with USPS on your behalf. If the carrier confirms the parcel is lost, we will arrange a replacement or store credit at our discretion.

Question 24

What is Signature on Delivery and should I select it?

Accepted Answer

Signature on Delivery is an optional add-on available at checkout for a small fee. It requires the carrier to obtain a signature from a person at the delivery address before releasing the parcel. We strongly recommend it if you are concerned about parcel security or theft.

Question 25

How do I lodge a missing parcel claim with USPS?

Accepted Answer

You can lodge a formal investigation directly with USPS at usps.com You will need your tracking number and order details. This is recommended when the carrier has left a parcel without authorisation or when tracking shows the parcel is lost in transit.

Question 26

Can I get a refund if my parcel goes missing?

Accepted Answer

All sales are final and refunds are generally not offered. If tracking confirms delivery and you selected "Leave in a Safe Place", no replacement or refund will be provided. For parcels genuinely lost in transit (no delivery confirmation), contact us within 14 days and we will investigate. If the carrier confirms the parcel is lost, resolution is provided at our discretion (typically store credit or replacement).

Question 28

How do I reconstitute lyophilized peptides?

Accepted Answer

Reconstitution methods vary depending on the compound and research application. Researchers should follow protocols appropriate to their specific experimental requirements using laboratory-grade materials.

Question 29

What is the shelf life of your products?

Accepted Answer

When stored correctly in sealed containers under recommended conditions, lyophilized peptides typically remain stable for extended periods. Stability after reconstitution varies by compound and storage protocol.

Question 30

Can products be refrozen after thawing?

Accepted Answer

Repeated freeze-thaw cycles can affect peptide stability. For research accuracy, aliquoting reconstituted solutions for single-use applications is recommended.
