About Kelvin Line

Who makes this material, who tests it, and what we will not do.

The supplier

A supplier that can be checked

Kelvin Line Reference Materials synthesises lyophilised reference peptides in Madison, Wisconsin and supplies them to laboratories, contract research organisations and independent investigators. Every lot is tested by an independent laboratory and released only once its certificate is published. We are a materials supplier and a records keeper, and we are deliberately nothing else.

A supplier that can be checked

What we are for

To make the claim on the label checkable by the person holding the vial. A purity figure that cannot be traced to a dated, independent report on that specific lot is marketing, and the industry has too much of it already.

What we refuse

We publish no dosing, administration, reconstitution-for-use or protocol guidance, and our staff are instructed not to supply it on request. We do not sell for human or veterinary use. We do not display accreditation marks we do not hold. These refusals are the product.

Our Values

The lot is the unit

Not the product line and not the year. Every figure we publish belongs to one batch, and the number on the vial is how you find it.

Independent or it does not count

Testing is done by a named external laboratory with the method and instrument on the report. An unattributed in-house number proves nothing.

Publish before selling

A certificate that appears after the sale is a receipt. Ours are published before the lot is listed, so you can read one before you spend anything.

Say no in writing

When somebody asks for dosing guidance we decline in writing, every time. A supplier that answers that question once will answer it again.

This strip describes how every lot is handled. The measured figures for the lot you receive are read off its own certificate on the product page, never from a house average and never from a historic batch.

Purity and identity

HPLC-UV purity with the measured figure printed on the certificate, plus mass-spectrometry identity confirmation. Where an endotoxin, heavy-metal or microbial panel was run, that report is published alongside it.

What each report covers

Cold chain

Lots are held at minus 20 C with continuous logging and dispatched gel-packed in insulated cartons. The temperature record for your parcel travels with it and is reproduced on request.

How a parcel is handled

Payment

Card, ACH bank transfer and cryptocurrency. Bank transfer and cryptocurrency payments are not reversible once settled, which changes what a return can be. Read the returns policy before choosing one.
