Based Research names its company and lab, but most of its prices sit above our index median. As of October 19, 2026, Based Research LLC names Analytical Formulations as its testing lab and keeps a testing page. Most compounds we priced were above the median in our price index, and we found no independent Finnrick tests.
Notice: Based Research's products are sold for in-vitro laboratory research only. They are not FDA-approved and not for human or animal use. This review covers supplier transparency and prices only. We didn't buy or test any products. Some vendors pay us a commission when you buy through our links. That never changes a score or a price ranking.

Testing and COAs
Based Research has a testing page and names Analytical Formulations as its lab. Its site says it supplies "sequence, MW, lot ID, storage guidance" for each compound. Even so, we didn't find lot or batch numbers shown alongside its COAs, and we didn't see endotoxin or sterility testing mentioned. We haven't verified anything with the lab.
We found no Finnrick tests for Based Research, so there's no independent data from customer-submitted samples.
What we like
- Names its company (Based Research LLC) and its testing lab.
- A dedicated testing page.
- Says all inventory ships from a US warehouse.
- Policy pages for shipping, refunds and terms of sale, plus an FAQ.
What to watch
- Most prices are well above the index median; TB-500, Tesamorelin and Thymosin Alpha-1 run 80% or more above it.
- No lot-matched COAs or endotoxin testing found.
- No independent Finnrick tests found.
- No location or payment methods published.
How it compares
Based Research is a premium-priced option with moderate disclosure. Compare it against all vendors we track, check peptide deals this week or see our ranked list.
Bottom line
Based Research is a named LLC with a named lab and a testing page. Its prices are high for most compounds, and it has no independent test record on Finnrick yet. Compare per-mg costs in our index before ordering.
