Summary: GLP-1-class research peptides are compounds studied in laboratory contexts for their interaction with incretin-related receptor pathways. PureLab Performance currently stocks two GLP-1-class research compounds — retatrutide and tirzepatide — supplied strictly as Research Use Only (RUO) reference materials, supplied with lot, purity and testing-laboratory data published on each product page, or stated as pending, for well-characterized, reproducible laboratory work.
The GLP-1-Class Research Compounds We Currently Stock
PureLab keeps this category intentionally focused. The two currently available GLP-1-class research peptides are listed below. Each is provided for qualified researchers and laboratory professionals only.
Retatrutide Research Peptide (RUO)
An investigational triple agonist studied for its interaction with multiple receptor pathways. Not FDA-approved for any use. Lot, purity and testing laboratory published on the product page, or stated as pending.

Retatrutide product page — $84.99–$239.99 - Learn more: Triple-agonist
explainer
Tirzepatide Research Peptide (RUO)
A dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist. Tirzepatide is FDA-approved as a prescription drug in specific brand products, but this material is an RUO research peptide — not the approved drug and not for human use. Lot and purity data are published on the product page, or stated plainly as pending.

Tirzepatide product page — $89.99–$249.99 - Learn more: What is
tirzepatide?
These are the currently available GLP-1-class research compounds in our catalog.
PureLab Quality, Testing, and RUO Standards
Every GLP-1-class research peptide we stock is held to the same documentation and testing standards:
- Independent testing — lot, purity, label claim and testing
laboratory published per product, or stated plainly as pending. - Certificate of Analysis available — described in
general, verifiable terms, with no fabricated lab names or invented
figures. - Purity verified analytically — by methods such as HPLC-UV-MS, with the result published per lot where testing is complete.
- Research Use Only — not for human or veterinary
use, clinical use, or self-experimentation.
Learn how we document and verify material:
- How to read a GLP-1 peptide COA
- How to verify a Krause Analytical peptide COA
- Peptide purity and HPLC
- What “Research Use Only” (RUO) means
- GLP-1 peptide reconstitution and storage (lab context)
We do not provide dosing, administration, or human-use instructions of any kind.
