Always quality-tested, verified with third-party COAs

At every step, we prioritize quality by conducting rigorous third-party testing on all our products. These tests focus on five key characteristics — identity, purity, sterility, endotoxin levels, and heavy metal content — ensuring that each product meets the highest standards of quality, with independent third-party Certificates of Analysis (COAs) to verify our commitment to excellence.

Identity Test

Identity testing ensures that the product contains the correct ingredient as labeled, verifying its authenticity and matching it to established reference standards.

Purity Test

Purity and concentration testing verifies that the ingredient is present in the correct amount, with a purity of 99% or higher to meet stringent quality standards.

Sterility Test

Sterility testing ensures that the product is completely free from bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.

Endotoxin Test

Endotoxicity testing specifically detects and quantifies lipopolysaccharides (LPS), components of bacterial cell walls, to ensure the product is free from endotoxins.

Heavy Metals Test

Heavy metals testing ensures that the product is free of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, and other heavy metals.

KPV: Handling & Storage Guidelines

Proper handling and storage of KPV is essential to maintain peptide integrity, biological activity, and experimental reproducibility throughout research protocols.

  • Lyophilized Powder: Store unopened vials at -20°C (-4°F) in a freezer, protected from light and moisture. Under these conditions, lyophilized KPV remains stable for 24-36 months. Transfer vials to frozen storage upon receipt.
  • Reconstitution: Reconstitute KPV using sterile water, bacteriostatic water, or phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) to achieve desired concentrations, typically 1-5 mg/mL for optimal stability and handling.
    • Allow the lyophilized powder to reach room temperature before adding reconstitution solution, then gently swirl to dissolve completely. Avoid creating air bubbles or foam during reconstitution.
  • Aliquots: Reconstituted KPV should be stored at 2-8°C (36-46°F) for short-term use up to 14 days. For extended storage beyond two weeks, aliquot the solution into single-use portions in sterile cryovials and store at -20°C (-4°F) or -80°C (-112°F). This aliquoting strategy prevents repeated freeze-thaw cycles that can degrade peptide integrity.
  • Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Minimize freeze-thaw cycles to no more than 2-3 occurrences. Each cycle increases the risk of peptide aggregation, structural degradation, and reduced biological activity. Thaw frozen aliquots slowly at 2-8°C rather than at room temperature or using accelerated methods.
  • Laboratory Safety and Compliance: Handle KPV using appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, lab coat, and eye protection. Work within institutional biosafety and chemical handling guidelines. 
  • Waste Disposal: Dispose of unused peptide solutions and materials according to institutional waste management protocols. Maintain proper documentation of peptide handling, storage conditions, and expiration tracking as part of good laboratory practices.

Note: For optimal experimental outcomes and confidence in research material quality, order bacteriostatic water (sterile water) from Eternal Peptides with your KPV.

COA / Quality Assurance

Eternal Peptides provides comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COAs) for every KPV lot for transparency and traceability. Each COA delivers detailed analytical data essential for experimental reproducibility, regulatory compliance, and quality assurance documentation.

COA Contents:

  • Peptide Identity Verification: Confirmed through high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) retention time matching and mass spectrometry analysis, verifying the correct molecular weight of 342.43 g/mol and tripeptide sequence (Lys-Pro-Val).
  • Purity Assessment: Quantified via HPLC with UV detection, measuring the percentage of target peptide versus impurities, synthesis byproducts, or degradation products, typically demonstrating ≥98% purity for research-grade KPV.
  • Sterility Testing: Conducted according to USP <71> sterility testing protocols to ensure freedom from bacterial and fungal contamination in lyophilized products.
  • Endotoxin Levels: Measured via Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay to ensure compliance with research-grade standards, typically <1.0 EU/mg, critical for inflammatory research where endotoxin contamination could confound experimental results.
  • Storage Recommendations: Tailored guidance for optimal stability based on the specific tested lot, including temperature requirements and recommended reconstitution procedures.

Eternal Peptides partners with leading independent analytical laboratories, including Janoshik and Finnrick Analytics, to conduct rigorous independent testing. This means reliable results that meet international analytical standards and support publication-quality research.

Additionally, all COAs are lot-specific, uniquely identified by batch numbers printed on product vials, and readily accessible through the Lab Tests page on our website.
