Is Raw Amino legit?
Raw Amino scores 5.70 out of 10 (Fair, #65 of 100) as of November 6, 2026 and passes our testing gate: 15 of the 17 products we score carry a certificate, 10 confirmed with the issuing lab (a lab we grade A). Its strongest area is shipping and refunds (7.0/10) and its weakest is transparency (1.5/10); its operating history on record covers over two years. We also record that one posted certificate differs from the laboratory's own copy and some of its certificates were issued to another business.
On lab evidence, the heaviest-weighted factor, Raw Amino has independently verified third-party COAs, with COA work on record from MZ Biolabs. Its lowest price per milligram in our data is on GHK-Cu (see the table below).
How this score was calculated
Every point below follows the published tables in our methodology, with the policy wording we scored and a link to where we read it. Evidence last checked October 22, 2026. Lab credibility is worked product by product from the certificates on file.
Lab credibility5.7/10
Each carried product (lab supplies excluded) is scored from the certificate on file for it, on the published lab rubric: 3 for a published certificate, then points for the laboratory, the verification key, the tests on the certificate and its purity, held to 0 to 10. A certificate that is self-issued, names no laboratory, or comes from a laboratory whose independence is not established scores a flat 2.0; a product with no certificate, a certificate the laboratory’s own record fails, or a posted copy that differs materially from the laboratory’s copy scores 0. Calculated on , the day this page was built; the date each certificate was tested is shown on its row.

Testing gate: 10 of 17 products have a certificate from a directory laboratory (not tier D, not self-issued) with the key confirmed at the laboratory. That is at least half, so the vendor counts as third-party tested and no cap applies.

We re-audit vendors against their live COAs and site. Here is what most recently moved this rating, and why.

- Most recent audit · 5.59to5.70
Lab score recomputed under the published rule on 6 November 2026: lab 5.5 to 5.7.
- Audit · 5.86to5.59
GHRP-6 certificate scored 0 under rule A4 (copy differs from the laboratory's copy): Raw Amino's posted copy of the MZ Biolabs certificate for lot Ts5aiN prints analysis date 6 July 2026, while the laboratory's own record of the same certificate gives 6 April 2026. Confirmed at MZ Biolabs on 22 October 2026 and twice on 24 October 2026; evidence preserved. Lab 6.0 to 5.5.
- Audit · 5.97to5.86
Supplier adjustment added (-0.2, rule A7): six MZ Biolabs analyses on Raw Amino's certificates (TB-500, GHK-Cu, CJC-1295 with DAC, Ipamorelin, PT-141 and Hexarelin) were first issued to another business in July 2026 and re-issued under Raw Amino's name on 2 September 2026 with new lot labels, as the laboratory's own records show. Confirmed independently twice. Lab 6.2 to 6.0.
Earlier audits (7)
- Audit · 5.91to5.97
Lab score recalculated on 22 October 2026 under the published core-product rule (A1b): a missing certificate on one of the 15 most widely carried products still counts fully, while on any other product it now counts at half weight, so a broad catalogue is not penalised as much for its breadth. Lab 6.1 to 6.2.
- Audit · 5.97to5.91
Claim deductions re-checked on 22 October 2026 under the published rule (only site claims contradicted by what the certificates show), each confirmed independently from primary sources. Lab 6.2 to 6.1.
- Audit · 5.96to5.97
Operating history re-checked on 22 October 2026 under the published rule (earliest dated evidence of the business, including a never-parked store domain and the named operating company, looked up for every vendor): operating history 3.4 to 3.7.
- Audit · 6.83to5.96
Re-scored on 22 October 2026 under our published rubric for shipping, pricing, operating history and transparency, applied to every vendor the same day: prices re-read from the vendor's site and matched by milligrams per vial, operating history from the earliest dated evidence of the business, and policies scored item by item. shipping and refunds 9.0 to 7.0, pricing 7.9 to 6.0, operating history 4.0 to 3.4, transparency 4.6 to 1.5.
- Audit · 6.28to6.83
Certificate verification keys confirmed on 22 October 2026 at MZ Biolabs' own certificate page, which only opens in a browser, and the lab score recalculated under the uniform rubric. Lab 5.2 to 6.2.
- Audit · 5.89to6.28
Lab evidence re-checked on 20 October 2026 under our coverage rule, which counts a listed product with no published certificate as zero in the lab average. Certificates cover 15 of the 17 products we list that the vendor offers for sale. Lab 4.5 to 5.2.
- Audit · 6.71to5.89
Lab 6.0 to 4.5. Recomputed under our published rule, which averages the lab score over the products we list and counts a listed product with no certificate as zero. Fifteen products carry MZ Biolabs certificates with no key we could check, the AOD-9604 certificate is issued by the vendor itself, Fragment 176-191 has none, and most MZ certificates carry the same lot date across different compounds. A BPC-157 row that showed a laboratory check was corrected: the stored value was the lot date.
Editor’s notes
Raw Amino states that its peptides are synthesized and lyophilized in the United States. Certificates are issued by MZ Biolabs (Tucson, Arizona); no ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation number is published. They name Raw Amino as the client and report HPLC-UV-MS purity between 98.70 and 99.95 percent on the certificates we read on 22 October 2026, with a chromatogram and a named analytical chemist. Of the 17 products we list, 15 had an MZ Biolabs certificate on the product page on 22 October 2026; AOD-9604 and Fragment 176-191 had none. Two of the MZ certificates, for MT-2 and IGF-1 LR3, print the same date-style lot, 2026-03-30, and on 22 October 2026 we confirmed eleven of the certificates on MZ Biolabs' own certificate page. On 23 October 2026 a newer GHRP-2 certificate (lot Sm8eke, analysed July 2026, 98.78%) was confirmed on MZ Biolabs' own certificate page. No endotoxin or sterility results are published. The contact page lists an email address only, with no physical address, phone number, founding year or named owners. The catalogue is broad and includes a bioregulator range. Shipping is free above an order minimum, and on 22 October 2026 the home page said orders placed before noon ship the same day and the checkout offered card payment. In September 2026 we corrected a record that described the testing as in-house only; the certificates are from a third-party laboratory. Certificates from MZ Biolabs cover 15 of the 17 products we list; AOD-9604 and Fragment 176-191 show none. Checked 23 October 2026: six of Raw Amino's MZ Biolabs certificates (TB-500, GHK-Cu, CJC-1295 with DAC, Ipamorelin, PT-141 and Hexarelin) carry the same laboratory analysis as certificates MZ Biolabs issued to Biotech Peptides in July 2026: the same raw data file, analysis date and peak results, with a different client name and lot label. Raw Amino's versions are dated 2 September 2026. Under our rules, certificates first issued to another business count under the supplier adjustment. On 24 October 2026 the GHRP-6 certificate (lot Ts5aiN) was scored 0 under our rule A4: the posted copy prints analysis date 6 July 2026, while MZ Biolabs' own record of the same certificate gives 6 April 2026. It is scored normally again once the posted copy matches the laboratory's record.
