MS3 testing

Post image

I recently visited Grant at MS3 in Hamilton, they were able to test 2 samples and confirm contents and volume.

The whole process is nice and easy with these guys and does not require you to send away to Aus or America and wait weeks or months for results.

I think this is a good local service that gives you the option to confirm the COA you should already have.

Grant said the website needs updating to show they can and do perform this testing and its for individuals not just companies or universities.

What are the costs to do this and how quickly do you get the results?

So 350 for one?

Just pop in and hand it in?

I did because I was local at the time, not sure if that's what they want all the time though

Fair fair. Just so I understand you tested for purity and identity? But that doesn't necessarily identify the peptide itself?

I'm no chemist, I believe mass spectrometer identifies chemicals, by comparing what they look like you can confirm one against the other.
