KPV
Synthetic tripeptide supplied as a reference standard for in-vitro inflammation research.
Every lot of KPV is analysed against the specification below before any vial is released.
| Parameter | Result | Method | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Appearance | White lyophilised powder | Visual | White lyophilised powder |
| Purity | ≥ 99.00% | HPLC | ≥ 95% |
| Identity | Confirmed | HPLC / MS | Meets specification |
| Heavy metals | Not detected | ICP-MS | Pass |
| Sterility | No growth | PCR | Pass |
| Endotoxin | Within limit | USP <85> | Report |
Analysis is carried out on every lot before release. If you are supplying material onward, run your own confirmatory testing on arrival — our work supports yours, it does not replace it.
