    Read some discussion on Nexaph TG channel that they are starting to use Freedom due to long Janoshik delays?? 😭

    Was finally excited to start using Nexaph as they are adding endotoxin testing.

    Also what's the deal with their MOTS-C showing 97% purity on Jano and then 99% on Freedom?? Exactly same thing with Tesa too.

    @pep_researcher i emailed Cain on this and he said they are still using Janoshik some of the group tests may use other labs like Freedom though is what it sounds like

      @pep_researcher The main purity/mass testing for the some Tesamorelin I just received is showing Freedom Labs - please note - I don't think this is a concern to me... but it appears to be more than just the group tests.

        @PeptideEd There's also the Janoshik mass/purity results tab right next to it showing different numbers. The concern is about difference. The TG channel mods said something about how each lab calculates expients, but then wouldn't that be same for all other compounds too, and wouldn't that be same for different batches within the same compound?

        Was there a change in manufacturing process and raws?

          @PeptideEd From Cain

          Hi Steven,

          We are not changing and will continue to use Janoshik as they are the gold standard.

          They have the Janoshik COA there as well. Tested at two labs, and they show both; you just can't beat them. Freedom clearly has issues. Janoshik shows 3 vials tested for Mass, ID and Purity all very close. Plus Endotxins, Heavy metals and soon sterility all Janoshik.

          If you want to buy from the gold standard, you found it. As Jeff calls it the easy button, you may pay more but its piece of mind

            @stevepep sorry to have gotten that wrong... I'd missed the second mass/purity tab 🙂 Now I just have to figure out how to get all the direct QR codes onto my labels and still remain phone scannable on a curved vial surface 🙂

            @pep_researcher I see that now... I am over all super pleased with the test coverage... but a little concerned about the less than 99% purity test from Jashonik.

              @PeptideEd Ya, I wouldn't have ordered it, to be honest. The cat's out of the bag, though, so filter it and go slow.

                Yup that was my point too.

                Nevertheless I wanted to say that I still appreciate their brutal honesty. They could've just displayed Freedom COA saying they used Freedom for this batch.

                So despite this anomaly, between them and a vendor hopping multiple labs for every batch, I would pick Nexa.

                  OK... maybe I'm just slow today... but the links to Janoshik from the new test all the things sites at Nexaph are no longer direct... they take you to a form that needs the task id and unique key... the Nexaph end provides the unique key... but I don't see the task id anywhere. Am I just blind?

                      I wish Nexaph had lower prices… They were not too bad before that price jump, still not as cheap as the other grey market suppliers but reasonable enough where it was a good place for people to go buy 1 or 2 kits at a time from. But $468 for a kit of KLOW, who could really afford that, not me I don’t have that kind of cash...

                        @PeptideEd If you create tiny url's for the QR code, they can be printed smaller and still be scannable.

                            @Randy Is this due to the recent "China is banning KPV production" scare, or something else?

                              @Stevepep This new 97% tested batch of Tesa is now on EZ and AMP too. I appreciate the honesty too, but the previous batches were tested over 99% at Janoshik. I kind of get used already to see 99+% for the products I buy. There is 99.9% COA from Freedom for the same batch though, but we know there are issues with them. In Nexaph TG group they stated that they looked for "97% purity or more" from the test, so they got what they expected, but there are other products at higher level, and their own previous batches were at 99.7% levels.

                              attentiion is all you need

                                @vpeptides So what are the true downsides to 97% instead of 99%? Just a weaker product (less bang for your buck), failure in the lypholization process, or something else?

                                  @Randy $178 sounds more reasonable. At 400 plus dollars, those kits just push me towards the more grey vendors and group buys. The greater cost only pushes people to greater risks in my opinion. At least it does for me.

                                    @Nuncles That means these 2% of the AUC on HPLC chart belong not to Tesamorelin but to something else, maybe a broken chain or a different peptide. Who knows, they don't show us peasants the charts. But you can't also tell what is it from HPLC chart, you may guess something from LC-MS charts (or whatever they use for identity), but they don't show it either.

                                    attentiion is all you need

                                      @Nuncles anaphylactic response risk increases with less purity. It’s probably fine in most people but those who are sensitive can have a response to the impurities. Also less actual peptide.

                                        @steve @vpeptides Thanks for the education. Where, or which process, does this "other 2%" most likely come from? Any educated guesses of the most likely place/cause? I don't have a complete understanding of how peptides are created and the process it takes to get to us, but I'm trying to somewhat fill in the blanks.

                                          @Nuncles if it’s Nexaph it’s likely degradation. Could be moisture or salt. That’s a guess because it could be anything like a breakdown in the chain, another peptide etc. I am familiar with the nutraceutical space so I know the process. We don’t get enough info on the COA to really make that determination because they don’t show the compounds individually
