Research Use Only (RUO) is a regulatory designation indicating that our compounds are manufactured, tested, and sold exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research, analytical chemistry, and scientific investigation. They are not approved by the FDA for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use in humans or animals.
By purchasing from Vivere Peptides, you acknowledge and agree that all compounds will be used solely in a controlled laboratory setting by qualified personnel. This designation is detailed in our Research-Use Disclaimer, which every customer must accept prior to purchase.
We take this designation seriously and reserve the right to refuse sales to individuals or entities that we believe intend to misuse our products outside of legitimate research contexts.
Every compound we sell ships with a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) generated by an independent, ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratory. Each CoA includes HPLC purity data, mass spectrometry confirmation, amino acid composition (where applicable), and endotoxin testing results.
You can download CoAs at any time from your account dashboard under Certificates, or scan the QR code printed on your product vial to access the CoA directly. Each document references a unique lot number that can be cross-verified with the testing laboratory.
If you require additional testing beyond what is provided, we can arrange custom analytical panels at cost. Contact quality@viverepeptides.com with your lot number and testing requirements.
All Vivere Peptides compounds are synthesized to a minimum purity of ≥98% as verified by HPLC. The majority of our catalog exceeds 99% purity, and we publish the exact purity percentage for each lot on the corresponding Certificate of Analysis.
Our quality control process includes:
Our testing laboratories hold ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, ensuring traceability and reproducibility of all analytical results. See our Certificates section for more details.
Our lyophilized peptide powders are manufactured under controlled cleanroom conditions but are not terminally sterilized. As research-use materials, they are produced to high microbiological standards but are not guaranteed sterile in the pharmaceutical sense.
If sterility is required for your research protocol, we recommend reconstituting with bacteriostatic water (BAC water) and filtering through a 0.22 µm syringe filter. We offer BAC water and filtration supplies in our accessories catalog.
Endotoxin levels are tested and reported on the CoA for compounds where this is relevant to common research applications.
Lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides are highly stable when stored correctly. Unopened vials stored at -20°C or below typically maintain full potency for 24–36 months from the date of manufacture. At refrigerated temperatures (2–8°C), shelf life is approximately 12–18 months.
Once reconstituted, peptide solutions should be stored at 2–8°C and used within 30 days for optimal stability. Reconstituted solutions can be aliquoted and frozen at -20°C for extended storage, though repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided as they may degrade the compound.
Each vial label and CoA includes the manufacture date and recommended storage conditions. For long-term archival storage, we recommend lyophilized form at -80°C.
Yes. We offer custom peptide synthesis services for researchers who require sequences not currently in our standard catalog. Custom orders typically involve a minimum quantity of 5 mg and require 2–4 weeks for synthesis, purification, and quality testing.
To request a custom synthesis, email custom@viverepeptides.com with the peptide sequence, desired purity, quantity, and any modifications (e.g., acetylation, amidation, PEGylation). Our chemistry team will provide a quote and estimated delivery timeline within 48 hours.
Custom compounds undergo the same rigorous QC process as our catalog products, including HPLC purity analysis and mass spectrometry confirmation, with a full CoA provided upon delivery.
Single compounds contain one isolated peptide sequence at a defined purity and quantity. They are ideal for controlled experiments where you need to study the effects of a single variable.
Peptide Blends combine two or more complementary peptide sequences in a single vial at specified ratios. Blends are designed for researchers studying synergistic interactions or multi-target pathways. Each component in a blend is individually synthesized and verified before combination, and the blend receives its own CoA documenting the identity and proportion of each constituent.
Browse our full selection of blends and single compounds in the Products section. Each product page clearly indicates whether the item is a single compound or a blend.
Yes. We carry research-grade semaglutide and tirzepatide for qualified researchers. These GLP-1 receptor agonist analogs are among our most rigorously tested compounds, with each lot verified to ≥99% purity by HPLC and confirmed by mass spectrometry.
As with all our products, GLP-1 compounds are sold strictly for Research Use Only. They are not intended for human administration, weight management, or any clinical application. Purchasers must acknowledge the Research-Use Disclaimer at checkout.
View availability and pricing on our Products page. Stock levels for GLP-1 analogs are updated in real time.
Our Research Library curates peer-reviewed publications, review articles, and foundational studies for every compound in our catalog. Each product page also includes a "Research" tab linking to relevant PubMed-indexed papers.

At this time, Vivere Peptides ships only within the United States, including all 50 states and territories. International shipping is not currently available due to the complex regulatory landscape surrounding peptide compounds across different jurisdictions.
We are actively evaluating international expansion to select countries with clear regulatory frameworks for research compounds. To be notified when international shipping becomes available, join our mailing list at the bottom of any page.
Researchers outside the US seeking similar compounds should consult their local regulatory authorities regarding the import of research-grade peptides.
If your tracking information shows "delivered" but you have not physically received the package, we recommend the following steps:
If the package still cannot be located after 48 hours, email support@viverepeptides.com with your order number. We will file an investigation with the carrier and, if the package is confirmed lost, ship a replacement at no charge.
All shipments are insured, so you will never bear the cost of a lost package.
Yes, we can ship to P.O. Boxes via USPS for standard ground shipments. However, expedited shipping (2-day and overnight) through UPS or FedEx cannot be delivered to P.O. Box addresses and requires a physical street address.
If your order requires cold-chain packaging or signature confirmation, we strongly recommend providing a physical address where someone will be available to receive the package promptly to maintain compound integrity.
You can save multiple shipping addresses in your account profile for easy selection at checkout.
If your order arrives with visible damage to the outer packaging or the product vials, please photograph the damage immediately before discarding any packaging materials. Contact support@viverepeptides.com within 72 hours of delivery with your order number and photos.
We will arrange a full replacement shipment at no cost to you. Damaged items do not need to be returned — simply dispose of compromised compounds according to your laboratory's waste protocols.
In the rare event of recurring damage to a specific delivery address, we may recommend upgrading to a more protective shipping method or using an alternative carrier.
Reconstitution is straightforward but requires care to preserve compound integrity. Follow these general steps:
Reconstituted solutions should be stored at 2–8°C and used within 30 days. For specific dilution volumes and concentrations, refer to the product page or the compound's technical data sheet in our Research Library.
Proper storage is critical for maintaining compound potency and stability. General guidelines:
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which can cause peptide degradation and aggregation. When possible, aliquot reconstituted solutions into single-use volumes before freezing.
Compound-specific storage instructions are printed on each vial label and documented in the accompanying CoA.
The ideal reconstitution volume depends on your target concentration and the amount of peptide in the vial. A common starting point is 1 mL of BAC water per 5 mg of lyophilized peptide, yielding a concentration of 5 mg/mL.
For more dilute solutions, increase the BAC water volume proportionally. For example, adding 2 mL to a 5 mg vial yields 2.5 mg/mL. Use our online reconstitution calculator (available on each product page) for precise volume recommendations based on your desired concentration.
Always use bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) rather than plain sterile water when the reconstituted solution will be stored for more than 24 hours. The benzyl alcohol acts as a preservative to inhibit microbial growth.
Yes. We offer bacteriostatic water in 10 mL and 30 mL vials, as well as complete reconstitution kits that include BAC water, sterile syringes, alcohol swabs, and mixing instructions. These are available in our Products section under "Supplies & Accessories."
Our BAC water is USP-grade, containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a bacteriostatic preservative. Each vial is sealed and lot-tested for sterility and endotoxin levels.
For high-volume researchers, we offer bulk BAC water packs at discounted pricing. Add supplies to your peptide order to consolidate shipping.
Yes. Every Certificate of Analysis includes the name and contact information of the independent, ISO/IEC 17025-accredited testing laboratory that performed the analysis. You are welcome to contact the lab directly to verify any lot number, purity result, or testing methodology.
Each lot number follows a standardized format that encodes the compound identity, synthesis date, and sequential batch number. The testing laboratory maintains records for a minimum of 5 years from the date of analysis.
If you need additional documentation or a letter of attestation for your institution's records, our quality team can facilitate this. Email quality@viverepeptides.com.

All Vivere Peptides compounds should be handled using standard laboratory safety practices. At minimum, we recommend:
Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are available for all compounds and can be downloaded from the product page or requested from safety@viverepeptides.com. Always review the SDS before working with a new compound.
Our Research Library is the best starting point. It contains curated collections of peer-reviewed articles, meta-analyses, and review papers organized by compound family and mechanism of action.
Each product page also includes a dedicated "References" section with direct links to PubMed-indexed publications relevant to that specific compound. We prioritize citing high-impact journals and landmark studies that have shaped the field.
For researchers seeking comprehensive literature reviews, we recommend starting with our "Mechanism Spotlight" articles, which synthesize current knowledge on popular peptide families such as BPC-157, GHK-Cu, and GLP-1 receptor agonists.
We accept returns of unopened, undamaged products in their original sealed packaging within 30 days of delivery. To initiate a return, contact returns@viverepeptides.com with your order number and reason for return.
