Independent lab testing
Is it the real deal?
Bought a compound online and not sure what's really in the vial? Send us a sample. We'll have it analysed by an independent partner laboratory and send you the full report.
How it works
01
Tell us about it
Describe the product, what it claims to be, where you bought it and exactly what you want tested. Add a photo of the product and label.
02
Post your sample
We give you a reference number and a printable label. Post the sample to us and add your tracking number.
03
Independent testing
We send it to our independent partner laboratory. You can follow every step in your account.
04
Get your results
You get a clear verdict and the full lab report to download – by email and in your account.
What we can test
- Purity (HPLC) – R2 627.50How pure is the sample, and what else is in it? Includes identity confirmation.
- Concentration – R2 627.50How much of the compound is actually in the vial – compared with the label claim.
What to send
- Ideally one sealed, unopened vial or at least 5 capsules / tablets
- Keep it in the original packaging so the label can be checked
- Pack it securely (bubble wrap) in a padded envelope or small box
- Write your reference number on the parcel, or use our printable label
Good to know
How long does it take?
Usually 10–20 working days after your sample reaches us, depending on the tests you choose.
What does it cost?
Each test has a fixed price, shown above (VAT included). You choose the tests on the request form and pay by card with Yoco – then you post your sample.
Will you share my results?
No. Your photos and results are private and only visible to you and our team.
What can't I send?
Only send products that are legal for you to own and post in South Africa. We can't accept scheduled or controlled substances without the right permits, or anything hazardous.
Which compounds can be tested?
Our partner lab has to confirm it can reliably test a compound before we accept it – for example, vials with several peptides mixed together often can't be separated and measured. If the lab can't test something, you'll see why here, and you won't be asked to pay.
