A supplier could not produce a COA
Our founder ordered BPC-157 for a shoulder that would not heal and asked for the assay. Three emails later there still was not one. That vial went in the bin, and the idea started.
About Auria
We publish what everyone else redacts.
Auria exists because buying research peptides used to mean trusting a stranger's word. We built the company we wanted to order from: one that shows you the assay for your own vial and destroys the batches that miss.

Our story
Started by people who got burned buying peptides
Twelve years in peptide sourcing, and the same three problems every time: no documentation, doses set by margin, and a cold chain that was cold only in the marketing.

We started paying for our own testing
Rather than trust a supplier certificate, we sent every incoming batch to an independent lab ourselves. It roughly doubled our cost per vial and immediately failed two suppliers we had been using for years.
The cold chain got loggers
A customer in Arizona received a warm box in July. We now ship validated shippers with temperature loggers and replace any order whose log shows an excursion — before the customer has to ask.
Twelve compounds, documented
Every batch code on the site resolves to its own HPLC and mass-spec results. Nothing in the catalogue exists because it sells well; each one has a job.
Our standards
Five rules we will not bend
Each one costs us money. That is rather the point — a standard you drop when it gets expensive was never a standard.
Every batch is independently assayed
costs us ~9%Identity by mass spec, purity by HPLC, endotoxin load per batch — at a lab we pay, not one the supplier picked.Failed batches are destroyed and published
4 in 2025Anything under 98% purity is written off. The disposition record goes in the COA library instead of quietly reappearing elsewhere.Doses follow the literature, not the margin
less productProtocols are dosed to the range the research supports for men and women, including where that means selling you less than a competitor would.Cold chain is logged end to end
we replace itValidated shippers with temperature loggers. If the log shows an excursion in transit we replace the order before you contact us.No claims we cannot cite
no hypeEverything on this site is a mechanism or a measurement. If we cannot point at the paper or the assay, it does not go in the copy.
