Where to Buy AICAR for Laboratory Research
Researchers looking to buy AICAR for laboratory use should evaluate suppliers on four things: where the peptide is actually synthesized, purity documentation, endotoxin and identity testing, and shipping/cold-chain handling. PX1 Research supplies AICAR that is manufactured, lyophilized and packaged in the USA — no overseas synthesis, no imports.
What to look for in a AICAR supplier
Not every seller listing AICAR actually synthesizes it. Many resell imported bulk peptide that has been re-vialed domestically. A defensible supplier discloses where synthesis happens, publishes third-party purity and identity data, and provides a batch-specific certificate of analysis (COA) for the exact lot shipping to your bench.
At minimum, ask any AICAR supplier for: (1) HPLC purity ≥99%, (2) mass-spec identity confirmation, (3) net peptide content by nitrogen analysis, (4) endotoxin (LAL) screening, and (5) a same-lot COA — not a generic template.
Purity, identity and endotoxin standards for AICAR
Every batch is third-party verified by an ISO 17025-accredited lab and ships with a certificate of analysis (COA).
AICAR is verified by HPLC-UV for purity, LC-MS or MALDI-TOF for identity, and LAL for endotoxin. Every PX1 batch of AICAR ships with a COA documenting these results against a signed batch record. See our published purity and endotoxin reports for representative documentation.
USA-synthesized AICAR vs imported
Overseas AICAR typically arrives as bulk lyophilized powder that is re-packaged in the U.S. under a distributor's label. That breaks the chain of custody: the reseller can't audit the original synthesis, and lot-to-lot consistency depends on a factory the reseller doesn't operate. PX1's AICAR is manufactured, lyophilized and packaged in the USA — no overseas synthesis, no imports — synthesis, testing and vial filling all happen in-house.
Shipping, storage and reship policy
AICAR orders placed before the daily cutoff ship the same or next business day from our U.S. facilities via tracked domestic carriers. Cold-chain packaging is used where required. If a shipment is delayed or damaged in transit, PX1 reships at no cost.
Research context for AICAR
As a research peptide, AICAR is supplied as a research-grade compound for in-vitro and laboratory investigation. All material is sold strictly for laboratory and research use only — not for human or veterinary use, diagnosis or treatment.
Buy AICAR at wholesale
Clinics, telehealth platforms and research groups can order AICAR at wholesale pricing with custom labeling and branded COAs. Minimum wholesale order is 100 vials per SKU. See the wholesale store for current per-vial pricing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the safest place to buy AICAR?
The safest AICAR supplier is one that publishes per-lot COA, HPLC purity and endotoxin data and synthesizes in the U.S. under a signed batch record. PX1 Research meets all four criteria.
Is your AICAR really made in the USA?
Yes. PX1's AICAR is manufactured, lyophilized and packaged in the USA — no overseas synthesis, no imports. We do not import lyophilized bulk and re-label it.
What purity should I expect from AICAR?
≥99% HPLC purity, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry and endotoxin screened by LAL. Every batch ships with the supporting COA.
Can I buy AICAR in bulk?
Yes — wholesale AICAR is available with custom labeling and branded COAs. Minimum wholesale order is 100 vials per SKU.
How fast does AICAR ship?
Same or next business day for orders placed before the daily cutoff, from our U.S. fulfillment center.
