What "research grade" actually means here
Gorilla Research Labs supplies reference compounds for laboratory and scientific research only. Every catalog item is a defined material with a documented purity specification, verified by independent high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and shipped with a certificate of analysis that records purity, identity and composition for its batch. We publish those certificates and list the testing laboratory so any researcher can confirm results at the source — the difference between a claimed number and a verifiable one.
Purity, documentation, and handling
Purity is only useful when it is measured and traceable. Alongside HPLC purity figures, each compound is handled under chain-of-custody protocols from synthesis to dispatch, stored to preserve stability, and reconstituted with laboratory-grade bacteriostatic water. Our on-site reconstitution calculator converts a vial mass and diluent volume into a working concentration and the volume holding a target research amount — measurement math for the bench, nothing more. For the science behind the catalog — how purity is established, what a certificate of analysis should contain, and why third-party testing matters — see our quality & COA standards and our research library.
