General Information

What are research peptides?

Research peptides are short chains of amino acids used in laboratory research to study
biological processes. They are not for human or animal consumption.

Are your peptides intended for clinical or therapeutic use?
Our peptides are sold exclusively for laboratory and scientific research use only. They are not approved, intended, or safe for any clinical, therapeutic, diagnostic, medical, personal, or human/animal consumption purposes under any circumstances. Any such use is strictly prohibited.
What are Peptides

A peptide is a short chain of amino acids (typically 2–50) linked by peptide bonds, serving as smaller versions of proteins. These molecules act as key signaling molecules in the body, instructing cells on processes like hormone regulation, tissue repair, immune response, inflammation control, and growth. Many bioactive peptides help address deficiencies by providing or mimicking essential raw materials (amino acid building blocks) and elements needed for optimal health. When the body lacks sufficient precursors—due to aging, diet, stress, or other factors—supplemental peptides can support natural pathways, promoting renewal, vitality, and balance at the cellular level.

About Peptide Capsules
Lab-formulated peptide capsules ensure secure storage and precise handling in research environments. Each contains accurately dosed peptide substances meant solely for in-vitro studies, never for human or veterinary purposes. Available Certificates of Analysis help confirm molecular identity and purity standards.

Storage & Handling

How should I store my peptides?
To preserve stability, store peptides in a cool, dry, and dark place. After reconstitution, we recommend keeping them in the refrigerator. Many research labs maintain lyophilized peptides at -20°C. Always follow any product-specific storage directions included with your order.
What solvents should I use to dissolve peptides?
The appropriate solvent varies by peptide. Frequently used choices in labs include sterile water, dilute acetic acid, and DMSO. Tides For Life supplies multiple sizes of bacteriostatic water, which perform effectively for many applications. Refer to pertinent scientific literature and always use proper laboratory safety protocols when handling solvents.
What if I break my vial after delivery?

We are unable to offer replacements or refunds for vials that are broken after delivery. Please handle all products carefully and inspect your order upon arrival.

What if my vial arrives broken?

If your vial arrives broken or damaged, please contact us within 24 hours of delivery with your order number and clear photos of the item and packaging. We will review the claim and determine the appropriate resolution.
