FAQ
FAQ
Are your peptides third-party tested?
Yes. All QuantaNova peptides are third-party tested by Forever Young Pharmacy, an independent analytical lab based in Southern California. Each batch is analyzed for molecular identity (via HPLC), purity (≥99%), and endotoxin levels (via LAL assay). A certificate of analysis (COA) is included with every order and is verifiable directly through Forever Young Pharmacy’s website or by contacting them using the information provided on the COA.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept major credit cards and Bitcoin as secure forms of payment. All credit card transactions are processed through an encrypted gateway to ensure your information is protected. If you prefer added privacy or decentralization, you can complete your purchase using Bitcoin at checkout.
Do you accept returns?
Yes, we accept returns within 30 days of delivery as long as the product remains unopened and in its original sealed packaging. Due to the sensitive nature of research peptides, we cannot accept returns on any product that has been opened, tampered with, or removed from its sterile container.
If your order is lost, damaged, or contains an incorrect item, we’ll gladly replace the affected product at no additional cost. Please contact our support team within 7 days of delivery to initiate a return or replacement request.
All return requests must be authorized in advance by our customer service team.
How do I reconstitute lyophilized peptides?
To reconstitute a lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptide, use sterile bacteriostatic water in a clean laboratory environment. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide:
Sanitize your workspace and tools.
Use sterile gloves, a clean syringe, and alcohol wipes to maintain a controlled environment.Draw the appropriate volume of bacteriostatic water.
The amount depends on your desired concentration. For example, reconstituting 20 mg of peptide with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water will yield a 10 mg/mL solution.Inject the water slowly into the vial.
Aim the water down the inside wall of the vial to minimize agitation and foaming.Let the peptide dissolve gently.
Swirl the vial lightly or let it sit at room temperature until the solution is clear. Do not shake.Refrigerate after reconstitution.
Store the solution at 2–8°C (36–46°F) and use within 30 days for best results.
How do I store my lyophilized peptides for optimal preservation?
To maintain stability and purity, lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides should be stored in a cool, dry, and dark environment until reconstitution. For optimal preservation:
Keep peptides tightly sealed in their original sterile vials to prevent moisture or air exposure.
Store at -20°C (-4°F) or colder for long-term preservation. A standard lab freezer is sufficient.
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. If using multiple times, aliquot the peptide after reconstitution to minimize degradation.
Protect from light by keeping the vials in amber containers or foil wrapping.
Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, peptides should be:
Refrigerated at 2–8°C (36–46°F)
Used within 30 days, unless otherwise stated on the COA
⚠️ These guidelines apply to research-use-only peptides and assume a controlled lab environment. Not for human or veterinary use.
Are your peptides made in the USA?
Yes. All QuantaNova peptides are sourced, tested, and lyophilized in the USA. We source high-purity raw peptide powders, then conduct third-party testing for identity, purity, and endotoxins through an independent lab in Southern California.
The final lyophilization, packaging, and quality control are handled in-house by Quantum Innovation Labs at our U.S.-based facility. This allows us to maintain full oversight of the manufacturing process and ensure every vial meets our strict research-grade standards.
A certificate of analysis (COA) is included with every batch and is independently verifiable.
What is the expiration date of lyophilized peptides?
When properly stored, lyophilized peptides are highly stable and can remain viable for 12 to 24 months or longer, depending on storage conditions and peptide type.
General Guidelines:
Unopened vials stored at -20°C (-4°F) or lower can typically maintain integrity for up to 2 years.
Shorter peptides with fewer amino acids often have longer shelf lives.
Avoid moisture, light, and temperature fluctuations, as these degrade stability.
After Reconstitution:
Once dissolved in bacteriostatic water or another solvent, peptides should be:
Refrigerated at 2–8°C (36–46°F)
Used within 30 days
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles — aliquot if needed
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes. We offer free standard shipping within the USA on all orders over $85. Orders are shipped using reliable, trackable carriers and include secure and discreet packaging. You’ll receive a tracking number as soon as your order ships.
For orders under $85 or international shipping, standard rates apply and will be calculated at checkout.
What is the intended use of QuantaNova peptides?
QuantaNova peptides are intended strictly for laboratory research use only. They are designed for use in analytical studies and controlled research settings by qualified professionals.
These products are not approved for human or veterinary use, and should not be used in food, drugs, cosmetics, or medical devices. Each product is labeled with appropriate disclaimers and shipped with documentation confirming its research-only designation.
⚠️ By purchasing QuantaNova peptides, you acknowledge and agree to use them solely for lawful research purposes in accordance with all applicable regulations.
What is lyophilization and why is it important?
Lyophilization, also known as freeze-drying, is a process used to remove moisture from a peptide solution by freezing it and then applying a vacuum to sublimate the ice directly into vapor. This results in a stable, dry powder form of the peptide that is highly resistant to degradation.
Why It’s Important:
Extends Shelf Life: Lyophilized peptides are much more stable and can be stored for 12–24 months or longer under proper conditions.
Preserves Peptide Structure: The freeze-drying process protects the delicate amino acid sequence and prevents breakdown during shipping and storage.
Improves Transportability: Lyophilized vials are lightweight, durable, and easy to ship without refrigeration.
Enables Precise Reconstitution: Researchers can accurately dissolve the peptide in a solvent of their choice (e.g., bacteriostatic water) for controlled experimental use.
At QuantaNova, all of our peptides are lyophilized in-house using pharmaceutical-grade equipment to ensure consistent quality and long-term stability.
What is your lyophilization process?
At QuantaNova, we conduct our lyophilization (freeze-drying) process in-house using pharmaceutical-grade equipment to ensure optimal stability, purity, and long-term peptide preservation.
Our Process:
Raw peptide powder (tested for identity, purity, and endotoxins) is first dissolved in a sterile, peptide-safe solution.
The solution is then frozen under carefully controlled conditions to preserve the molecular structure of the peptide.
Using vacuum-based lyophilization, we remove water through sublimation, turning the frozen solution into a dry, stable cake without passing through the liquid phase.
Our Lyophilization Formula:
We use a proprietary blend of mannitol (a stabilizing sugar alcohol) along with undisclosed protective excipients. This formula helps:
Protect the peptide from heat, cold, and freeze-thaw cycles
Maintain structural integrity during transport and storage
Reduce moisture reabsorption after packaging
Enhance the shelf life and consistency of reconstituted solutions
The result is a light, stable, cake-like peptide that dissolves easily in bacteriostatic water and holds up to lab conditions.
