Information for institutional quotation
EPO: price, documentation and dispatch in Colombia
EPO is offered in the Péptidos Colombia catalog as a laboratory reference exclusively for research, in two presentations measured in international units. The origin classification describes it as recombinant human erythropoietin, a 165-amino-acid glycoprotein with a long and well-documented history in the technical literature, unlike other catalog references whose molecular family is still pending verification. This listing organizes the reference's identification, a comparison of its two presentations, the lot documentation, and the quoting process in Colombia. Identity and purity are not assumed from the name: they are confirmed through the certificate of analysis issued by Janoshik Analytical, with HPLC for purity and MS for identity, handled on request and subject to document availability. The current price for each presentation is shown alongside the product and governs the quote.

EPO in the catalog: what the listing declares and what it defers to the COA
The catalog places EPO within Classic hormones and essential cofactors, a group of six well-characterized references: alongside EPO are Alprostadil, Insulin, Melatonin, Oxytocin Acetate, and Vitamin B12. Of the six, it is the only one whose presentation is declared in international units; the others are measured in milligrams, micrograms, or milliliters, depending on each one's presentation.
What this listing declares is limited to name, origin classification, presentations, and catalog price. Any analytical data — exact purity, lot number, production date — corresponds to the certificate of analysis for the specific lot being shipped, not to this general description, which is the same for any EPO lot that arrives in Colombia.
A 165-amino-acid glycoprotein, origin classification
The listing describes EPO as recombinant human erythropoietin, a 165-amino-acid glycoprotein. This is a structural classification, the same one the catalog uses to place the reference within the classic hormones category; it does not describe any use, only the type of molecule involved according to the available documentation.
Unlike Admax or Survotitude, two other references in this same catalog, EPO does have a verified molecular family documented well before this update. The difference between one reference and another does not depend on this listing: it depends on whether the trade name allows a reliable classification to be verified or not.
Two presentations in international units, not milligrams
EPO is offered in 3,000 IU and 10,000 IU. Unlike most of the catalog, which declares its presentation in milligrams, these two come in international units, the usual way of measuring this hormone in the technical literature. The catalog applies the same physical-form criterion to both presentations as it does to the rest of the references measured by mass or by units: lyophilized powder in a vial.
When requesting a quote, it is essential to indicate the exact presentation — 3,000 IU or 10,000 IU — because the price, the reference code, and, eventually, the order volume change substantially between the two. The internal catalog distinguishes the two presentations with separate reference codes, one for each vial size.
Two presentations in IU: what to declare in each quote
Since there are two presentations — 3,000 IU and 10,000 IU —, the institutional quote request must declare which of the two is being requested on each line of the order, with its own internal reference code. Combining both under the name EPO without the unit figure is the most common error when putting together a request that includes several catalog presentations.
The payment receipt and the receiving record should repeat the same unit figure that appears on the accepted quote, so that the inventory record does not have to work out, after the fact, which of the two vials arrived. That record-keeping discipline is the same one required by any catalog reference with more than one available presentation.
Janoshik certificate per lot and storage
The certificate of analysis for EPO is issued by Janoshik Analytical, with HPLC to confirm purity and mass spectrometry (MS) to confirm identity, per lot rather than for the reference in general. This listing does not publish a purity percentage of its own: that figure depends on the specific lot shipped and is confirmed in the corresponding document, on request and subject to document availability.
The storage condition the site declares for the peptide catalog is 2–8 °C, protected from light, applicable when EPO's lot documentation confirms it. Since two presentations exist, the inventory record must clearly distinguish which of the two units — 3,000 or 10,000 IU — corresponds to each stored vial.
Quoting, shipping, and payment
Shipping cost varies by destination and is shown on the site's shipping information page, regardless of which of EPO's two presentations is requested. The total quote adds the price of the chosen presentation, the units, and the shipping cost. Delivery time is not announced on this listing: it is confirmed when requesting a quote, based on available inventory and destination city. Outside Colombia, this reference ships to 5 countries (Costa Rica, Ecuador, United States, Mexico and Puerto Rico), from US$57; the rate for each country is listed on the site's international shipping page.
Payment is arranged after confirming in writing the exact presentation — 3,000 or 10,000 IU —, the units, the destination, and the total. Any change to the requested presentation requires new confirmation before payment, since both have distinct prices and reference codes.
Frequently asked questions about EPO
Is EPO offered for research use?
Yes, exclusively for research and laboratory work. The listing is limited to identification, presentation, documentation, and purchase logistics.
What is EPO according to the catalog's classification?
Recombinant human erythropoietin, a 165-amino-acid glycoprotein. It is a verified structural classification, unlike other catalog references that still lack a confirmed molecular family.
Why is EPO presented in IU rather than milligrams?
Because that is how this hormone is usually measured in the technical literature. The catalog respects the unit declared for each reference rather than converting it to milligrams.
Do I need to specify EPO's exact presentation when requesting a quote?
Yes. The catalog distinguishes 3,000 IU from 10,000 IU with separate reference codes, and each has its own current price shown in the commercial block of this page.
Where is the lot's purity confirmed?
In the certificate of analysis issued by Janoshik Analytical per lot, with HPLC and MS. It is handled on request and subject to document availability.
