Testing Nootropics for purity / safety - which ones do you want to see tested?

I work in a food testing lab and plan on testing some hardrhino piracetam for purity and safety (from heavy metals and food toxins) - since this is the one I primarily consume.
I put together a survey for people to chime in on what they want to see tested - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1XjoakfGr0_Ee4F972PTHcneitTit43mxZxlbppe6A2w/viewform
If there's a lot of interest, I'll test the 3 - 4 most popular nootropics (provided they aren't prohibitively expensive to obtain), and publish the results here.
What they were answering

That sounds awesome. Is there a thread with more details?

We are still finalizing the specifics, but vendors were expressing interest in advertising on /r/Nootropics, but they wanted the money to go to the community. So we came up with an idea where they can pay for 3rd party testing of other vendor's products. Essentially they are sponsoring testing. They will get recognized in the FAQ and on the results post for helping out the community.
I will make a post once all the specifics have been decided. We are using a lab out of Tennessee. Between your testing and ours, it will be an awesome step toward being sure about the purity of the nootropics we are ingesting! When are you planning on doing your testing?
