About Herglowlabs

HerglowLabs is an Australian supplier of research-grade peptides and reference standards for laboratory use, established in 2019 and based in Melbourne, Australia. The company supplies research institutions, analytical laboratories, and academic and commercial R&D groups with high-purity research materials backed by independent analytical documentation.

All HerglowLabs products are supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research and analytical use. They are not medicines, foods, cosmetics, or therapeutic goods, and are not intended for human or veterinary use.

What Herglowlabs does

HerglowLabs supplies characterised, high-purity peptides and peptide reference standards to laboratories that require consistent, documented research materials. Each batch is independently verified for identity and purity before release and is traceable through a LOT-numbering system. The company's purpose is narrow and practical: to remove material quality as a variable in research workflows.

HerglowLabs was founded in 2019 by an analytical chemist who saw Australian laboratories struggling with inconsistent quality, long international shipping times, and limited technical support from overseas suppliers. The company was built to provide a domestic alternative with full analytical traceability.

Where HerglowLabs is based

HerglowLabs operates from Melbourne, Australia, with refrigerated and frozen storage, calibrated laboratory equipment, and temperature- and humidity-monitored environmental controls. Domestic dispatch supports 1–2 business-day delivery to major Australian cities.

Quality and independent verification

Every batch is quarantined on receipt and sampled for testing at independent ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratories before it is approved for supply. Verification covers:

  • Identity — HPLC retention-time analysis confirmed by mass spectrometry.
  • Purity — target ≥99% by HPLC, with impurity profiling.
  • Heavy metals — screening for lead, cadmium, arsenic, and mercury by ICP-MS.
  • Residual solvents — GC-MS analysis where relevant to the synthesis route.
  • Endotoxin — LAL testing per batch.

Where aseptic processing applies, it includes 0.22 μm filtration and controlled lyophilisation. Complete batch records and a LOT-numbering system provide full traceability for research records.

Standards and certifications

  • ISO 9001:2015-compliant quality management system.
  • Independent testing through ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratory partnerships.
  • Good Distribution Practice protocols across the supply chain.
  • Member, Australian Society for Analytical Chemistry.
  • Full batch records and traceability.

Who Herglowlabs serves

HerglowLabs supplies institutional and research customers, not consumers. Typical applications include analytical method development and validation, enzyme kinetics and binding studies, protein–protein interaction research, and the use of peptides as reference standards in synthetic chemistry. Customers receive direct access to analytical chemistry support, a replacement policy for non-conforming materials, and assistance with documentation for research records.

Research Use Only

HerglowLabs products are supplied exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and analytical purposes. They are not therapeutic goods, medicines, foods, or cosmetics, and no human or veterinary use is intended or supported. Purchasers are responsible for ensuring their use complies with all applicable Australian laws and their own institutional policies.
