Behind the Scenes at Nootropics Depot: Inside Our Pharmaceutical-Grade Testing Labs 🧪

Original post in this thread

NootropicsDepotCom · 42 points

We were recently featured in a PricePlow article that goes behind the scenes of our Tempe, AZ pharmaceutical-grade labs and testing process. It walks through how we use in-house UPLC/HPLC, custom analytical methods, and even a cell culture program to verify bioactive content and better understand how ingredients actually interact with human cells. The piece also talks about our work calling out under-dosed or misrepresented products in the wider market, and how Omnient Labs is now offering our testing capabilities to other brands to help raise quality standards across the industry.​

If you’re interested in the “how” behind Nootropics Depot and why we’re so obsessive about data, it’s a solid overview worth a read.

Any updates on hericenone and hericene content in the 8:1 or the amyloban testing?

Or anything else exciting.

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · ND Owner

Actually, yes! Here is the chromatogram from the Amyloban lion's mane.

We found 1.38mg of hericenes and hericenones per capsule. That's getting really close to our 1.7mg per capsules for our 1:1, but not quite there yet.

Is ND done launching new products?

We are absolutely NOT done with new products. We are in the thick of development for a bunch of them. Some of them are just taking longer than expected to get perfect, so we have had a lull in releases. That's just becau

Sigma - New supplement containing Tongkat Ali made in collaboration with A.Huberman.

There are so many bullshit tongkats on the market now, especially after Huberman went on Rogan. I am just going to be very direct here, as I no longer have the time nor the energy for bullshit. Anyone selling a 200:1 ton

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb asked me to post the Lab Testing COAs I received from Bulk Supplements (Below)

That's about what I expected. These are just internal COAs. To start, analyzing nitrogen content is not an appropriate methodology for amino acid assay. This is the same shit China got away with on infant formula and spi
