Baseline Testing Standard baseline labs include: Full hormone panel (thyroid, sex hormones, cortisol, IGF-1 as a proxy for growth hormone) Metabolic markers (lipids, glucose, fasting insulin, A1C) Inflammatory markers (CRP, homocysteine) Liver and kidney function Gut-related tests when digestive system symptoms are present Lab testing is crucial before and during peptide therapy to monitor hormone levels and catch any shifts early
Wear PPE including gloves, lab coat, and protective eyewear Handle compounds within approved laboratory workspaces Avoid inhalation, ingestion, or direct contact Dispose of materials according to institutional chemical waste procedures Maintain proper labeling and documentation for stored research compounds These practices support safe and controlled laboratory operation
Reconstituted peptides must be refrigerated immediately and used within 28 to 30 days
