Buyer Decision Guide
Peptides are specified by source, degree of hydrolysis and molecular-weight distribution. Confirm the protein content basis, the assay method and the MW cut-off, because two products described by the same name can behave very differently in solubility and taste.
- Confirm the source material declaration
- Check protein content and the assay method
- Review molecular-weight distribution data
- Confirm solubility, taste and hygroscopicity for your format
How This Grade Differs
Mussel Peptide is a hydrolysed peptide from Mytilus edulis, not the intact protein and not a botanical extract of the same raw material. Compare source, degree of hydrolysis and MW distribution when substituting.
Compare these related grades before approval:
For a substitution review, compare botanical identity, plant part, assay target, analytical method, physical form and the current offered-batch COA.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is lot traceability handled?
Each lot keeps batch records and a retained sample, and the certificate for LXYB260124 carries the same batch reference used in the quotation.
Which impurity limits are declared?
Moisture and ash are held within the approved specification limits, with heavy metals and microbiology tested on every lot.
How is protein content expressed?
Protein >=80.0% on dried basis; low-molecular-weight peptide fraction, on the basis stated on the certificate.
How is appearance checked?
Fine light-tan powder, compared against a retained sample from the approved batch.
What assay does Mussel Peptide Powder carry on the certificate of analysis?
Assay Protein >=80.0% on dried basis; low-molecular-weight peptide fraction, determined by HPLC.
Can you produce to our own specification or packing?
Alternative assay targets, particle size, packing and private-label requirements are reviewed case by case, subject to production feasibility and a revised written specification.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The regular MOQ is typically 1 kg. An evaluation sample of 10-20 g can usually be arranged before a formal order, subject to stock.
Which documents come with the shipment?
Batch COA, specification sheet, agreed third-party testing where required, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and transport documents. The exact set is confirmed against the product and destination market.
