Beyond the literature: here's what third-party Certificate-of-Analysis records (Janoshik, BCC, Auxlabs) say about real Retatrutide and Semaglutide batches we've tested. Aggregate, public data — cross-reference against the studies below.
We tested 15770 Retatrutide batches across 2530 manufacturers, 99.67% avg purity.
We tested 1262 Semaglutide batches across 314 manufacturers, 99.55% avg purity.
We hold deeper lab coverage on Retatrutide (15770 batches tested). Retatrutide edges ahead on average measured purity (99.67% vs 99.55%) — a narrow gap; weigh it against failed-batch and underdose counts above.
