Independent third party 48–72 h Simi Valley, CA

Results you can hand to a skeptic and win.

Sycamore runs purity, identity, net peptide content and bacterial endotoxin on your material — then publishes a certificate whose ID resolves to exactly one lot, with the raw chromatogram attached.

Why it matters

A PDF is not a result.

Most certificates circulating today are screenshots of trust. They name a lab but not a method, cover a lot number that was never tied to the vial in question, and can be edited in any browser by anyone who received one.

The certificate you were sent

Unverifiable by design

  • No trace. A purity number with no chromatogram behind it can't be checked by anyone.
  • Reused across lots. One good result, attached to every batch that follows it.
  • Purity only. Identity, quantity and endotoxin are the expensive assays, so they're the ones quietly dropped.
  • Editable. Change a number, re-export, and the file still looks exactly as official as it did before.
A Sycamore certificate

Checkable by a stranger

  • Raw data attached. Chromatogram and standard curve ship with the report, not on request.
  • One ID, one lot. The report ID is issued at intake against a weighed vial and can't be moved to another batch.
  • Endotoxin included. Bacterial endotoxin is part of the standard panel, not an upsell.
  • Hashed and public. Every PDF carries a SHA-256 digest that anyone can check against our register — including a revoked one.
The standard panel

Four assays, one intake, one certificate.

Send the vial once. Everything below runs off the same weighed sample, so the numbers on your report describe one material rather than four shipments taken on four different days.

A-01 · PURITY

HPLC purity

Reversed-phase C18 gradient with diode-array detection at 220, 254 and 280 nm. Reports main peak area, each resolved related substance, and total impurities.

% area · HPLC-DAD
A-02 · IDENTITY

Identity by retention time

Retention time of the main peak against a reference standard run in the same sequence, judged against the tolerance the approved method sets. The chromatogram of both is attached to the report.

% difference vs standard · HPLC-DAD
A-03 · QUANTITY

Net peptide content

Quantitative determination against a reference standard, using the calibration model the approved method names. The standard curve and every injection behind the number ship with the report.

mg · single-point or linear calibration
A-04 · BIOSAFETY

Bacterial endotoxin

Kinetic LAL with a positive product control on every sample, so an inhibited assay is reported as inhibited rather than as a pass.

EU/mg
Process

From your bench to a published certificate.

01

Create an account

Free, no minimums and no contract. You get a portal, an API key and a shipping address.

02

Print the submission form

Each sample gets a barcoded label and a chain-of-custody slip generated from your portal.

03

Ship the vial

10 mg minimum for the full panel. Ambient shipping is fine for lyophilized material.

04

Intake and weigh-in

Mass, appearance and container condition are photographed and recorded before anything is opened.

05

Panel runs

Chromatography and mass spec first; the biosafety assays run in parallel on the same weighed aliquot.

06

Certificate published

PDF lands in your portal, the hash goes on the public register, and the badge on your product page goes live.

Verification

Check any report in about four seconds.

Anyone holding a Sycamore report ID can pull the original record — no account, no login. If a certificate was withdrawn, this is where you find out.

API and webhooks

Create submissions, poll status and pull results as JSON. A webhook fires the moment a certificate is released, so your store updates itself.
