What does research use only mean?
It means catalog items are listed only for qualified research contexts. Product information is limited to catalog facts such as name, SKU, research size, price, stock status, and documentation status.
Buyer questions
FAQ
Practical answers for browsing the catalog, using the order review flow, reviewing document availability, and understanding buyer eligibility.
Research-use scope
Are these products for human or animal use?
No. Catalog items are not intended for human use or animal use. The storefront does not provide use guidance or outcome claims.
Why is the product copy limited to catalog facts?
Research-use-only copy helps keep catalog pages focused on product identity, procurement facts, lot documentation, and order review instead of unsupported product outcomes.
Cart and buyer access
How does order review work?
Add catalog items to the cart, confirm buyer eligibility, enter contact details, and submit the order for manual review. Submission does not promise approval or availability.
Why is there an attestation step?
The attestation step records that the submitted order is for qualified research-use-only catalog procurement.
What must I confirm before submitting?
Order review requires agreement to the Terms of Sale, confirmation of qualified research use only, and confirmation that catalog items are not for human use or animal use.
Do I need an account?
An account is recommended for buyer records, but the current order review form can still be submitted during the private beta. Peptide Heroes may request additional buyer details during manual review.
COA, SDS, and lot documentation
Are COA/SDS documents available?
The Certificate of Analysis (COA) Library only surfaces real document availability by product and lot. If a document has not been released, the site says pending or not released instead of simulating a download.
When will purity or assay values appear?
Purity, assay, test method, and issuing lab fields appear only when a public available COA or SDS record supports those facts. Pending records do not create quality claims.
What does lot status mean?
Lot status describes whether a lot record is active, low stock, pending, depleted, or archived. Product pages and the COA Library use that status to keep document review close to product selection.
Where should I review documentation before submitting an order?
Use the product page for price, size, stock, and SKU review. Use the COA Library for document status and lot-level records. Blog guides provide background on how to read those records.
Review and fulfillment support
Is payment enabled?
Payment happens externally by Zelle, Venmo, Cash App, Bitcoin, or Ethereum. Your order code is not proof of payment or acceptance. Acceptance requires confirmed payment and successful review.
What happens after I submit an order for review?
You receive an order code, then follow payment instructions. We verify payment and review your order before acceptance and shipment. Unfulfilled paid orders are refunded.
How are shipment updates shared?
We provide USPS tracking when shipped. Dispatch means carrier handoff, not label creation. Standard transit is estimated at 3–5 business days after dispatch, excluding Alaska and Hawaii. Contact support before payment for Alaska, Hawaii, or expedited estimates.
Cancel by emailing support before USPS handoff. Report item damage, defects, missing contents, or wrong items within seven calendar days of delivery. For an undelivered shipment, contact support when tracking stalls or the latest estimate passes. Read the Return and Cancellation Policy and Shipping Policy for prices, timing, and remedies.
