Transparent per-sample pricing, true in-house USP <71> sterility, and no method-development fee for peptides already on our menu. A US lab built for fast, honest answers.
Add LC-MS identity confirmation for $250, reconstitution stability for $195, or conformity vials at $75 each when you submit. Blends: +$60 per additional declared active.
Prodigy Scientific performs contract analytical testing; we do not compound, manufacture or release drug products.
Add-ons available on any tier: LC-MS identity confirmation — intact mass ($250 per declared active, +$150 each additional in a blend) · reconstitution stability ($195 for day 0 / 14 / 28, or $95 per time point) · conformity vials from the same lot ($75 each, same certificate) · true USP <71> sterility on Tier 2 ($150, replaces the bioburden count) · rush turnaround (+25%). No method-development fee for peptides already on our menu. For a peptide that is not yet on the menu, onboarding is quoted case by case and we confirm the cost with you before anything is charged. Volume & batch pricing for recurring vendors — estimate your batch below or ask us.
For vials you can’t name, water you reconstitute with, and single tests on their own. All performed in our San Diego lab unless marked.

| Bioburden — USP <61> | TAMC / TYMC. | $150 | 5–7 days |
| Sterility — true USP <71> | 14-day incubation, in house. | $300 | ~15 days |
| Residual solvents — USP <467> | Headspace GC-MS. | $150 | 7–10 days |
| Fentanyl strip screen | Presumptive immunoassay on the reconstituted solution. On every peptide order. | $0 | with parent |
| Rush | Chemistry results within 3 business days of receipt, or the rush fee is credited back. | +25% | 3 days |
Anonymous COAs (no company name on the certificate) and QR verification are included on every order, not sold separately.

Does the panel include a true USP <71> sterility test (full 14-day incubation), or just a bioburden count (USP <61>)? That's usually the price difference. Our Tier 2 Injectable Safety Panel ($595) covers identity, purity, content, endotoxin, heavy metals, and bioburden; Tier 3 ($995) adds the true USP <71> sterility test and LC-MS/MS mass confirmation, and the sterility test can be added to Tier 2 on its own for $150, in place of the bioburden count rather than alongside it (one vial can be counted or tested for sterility, not both). Many lower-priced "injectable" panels are screening/bioburden — not a true sterility test — so it's worth confirming when you compare.

No. Endotoxin (USP <85>) only measures pyrogens. It says nothing about microbial contamination, which is what bioburden (USP <61>, in Tier 2) and the 14-day sterility test (USP <71>, in Tier 3 or as a $150 upgrade on Tier 2 that replaces the bioburden count) measure. We report results; whether a product is fit for use is not something a test result decides. Endotoxin pass/fail also depends on your intended max dose.
We retired it in September 2026. Every HPLC order now includes content (mg per vial against label claim) alongside identity and purity, for $225. Most customers who bought the screen came back asking for the milligram figure, so we stopped selling a certificate without it.
Yes. Blind identity ($250) runs the vial by HPLC against every reference standard in the matching calibration group on the same sequence and reports matched or no match. The unknown peptide screen ($395) adds an LC-MS intact-mass check against a list of common research peptides. Neither reports purity or content; if you know what the vial should be, the HPLC Package is the better test.
Yes. The reconstitution water panel reports endotoxin (USP <85>), benzyl alcohol content by HPLC-UV against the 0.9% w/v bacteriostatic-water specification, and pH. It is $195 when the water vial is submitted with a peptide order and $275 on its own. Full USP <71> sterility can be added for $300. Submit the water vial as its own sample.
Yes — the full 14-day USP <71> sterility test is performed in our own lab, not outsourced or substituted with a bioburden count.
No method-development fee for peptides already on our menu. Anything not yet on the menu is quoted case by case, with volume and ongoing work taken into account. We confirm the cost with you before anything is charged.
Yes, for analytical/research purposes, with a signed controlled-analyte acknowledgment and an analytical-only disclaimer on the COA.
Yes — individuals are welcome with a signed analytical-only attestation. We also serve vendors, clinics, and compounding pharmacies.
Yes — Prodigy Labs is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 (PJLA #96417, Cert. #L26-715). Our accredited scope is being expanded, and the peptide and compendial tests on this page sit in that expansion rather than in the current scope. Compendial safety testing (endotoxin USP <85>, bioburden USP <61>, sterility USP <71>) follows established USP methods on qualified instruments, and the quality system, instrumentation and analysts are the same either way. Ask us for the current status on your specific peptide. Our system suitability limits, identity criteria and validation targets are published in full.
