These figures are what pepmg still publishes about price: the floor, the middle, the spread and how many sources we track, computed from listings we captured first-party and refreshed on the same schedule as always. We no longer publish the individual listings or the sellers behind them.
Computed from 146 in-stock listings across 92 sources we captured first-party, with bulk vials, blends and statistical outliers excluded so the figures compare like with like. The spread is the highest tracked price divided by the lowest — how much the same milligram varies depending on where you look. The chart is the daily minimum; days we did not capture are left out rather than filled in.
- Are research peptides safe? What the evidence does and doesn't show Limited evidence
"Are peptides safe?" has no single answer. The compounds sold as research peptides sit at very different points on the evidence scale, from large randomized human trials for a few to animal-only data for many.

▸ Why compare $/mg for BPC-157?
Per-mg prices for BPC-157 vary due to differences in synthesis purity, scale of production, and vendor markup, with cheaper options sometimes indicating lower purity or under-filling. Comparing tracked prices helps a researcher identify cost-effective sources while maintaining quality standards for laboratory use.
▸ Reading the COA
Verify the Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirms the peptide identity via mass spectrometry (e.g., MALDI-TOF) and reports purity ≥98% by HPLC, as lower purity may indicate incomplete synthesis or degradation. Check for common adulterants like residual trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) or truncated peptide fragments, and ensure the reported content matches the labeled milligram amount to avoid under-filling.
