CanPeptide

CanPeptide Inc. is a Canadian custom peptide synthesis company based in Pointe-Claire (Montreal), Quebec, that has served academic researchers and biopharmaceutical companies since the early 2000s. Their canpeptide.com domain has been registered continuously since November 2004, giving the company more than 20 years of verifiable operating history. CanPeptide specializes in custom synthetic peptides at scales ranging from milligram to multigram, using both solution- and solid-phase chemistry on automatic, semi-automatic, and manual synthesizers. Their analytical workflow includes C-18 reverse-phase HPLC purification with optional ion-chromatography and gel-filtration steps. Every custom peptide ships with an HPLC chromatogram, mass spectra, and Certificate of Analysis, and the company claims a 95% synthesis success rate versus a 75% industry average. Available modifications include multiple antigenic peptides, disulfide-bridged and head-to-tail cyclic peptides (thioether and macrolactam), terminal modifications, unusual amino acids, fluorescent and biotin labeling, parallel and anti-parallel cyclic dimers, and counter-ion transformations. CanPeptide is referenced as a recommended custom peptide provider by McGill University researchers. Because the company sells custom peptides to research institutions rather than off-the-shelf injectable product to consumers, there are no Health Canada advisories on record.

CanPeptide is a B2B custom synthesis provider for academic and biopharma research, not a direct-to-consumer research-chemical retailer. Custom peptides are intended for in vitro research applications only.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • 20+ year-old domain (registered November 2004) and continuous operation
  • Real business identity disclosed (Pointe-Claire, Montreal Quebec address)
  • HPLC + mass spectrometry COA on every custom peptide
  • Wide range of post-synthesis modifications including PEGylation, biotinylation, cyclization
  • Both solution- and solid-phase synthesis capabilities
  • Purity tiers from crude through 99% to suit research budgets
  • 95% claimed first-pass synthesis success rate
  • Recommended by McGill University researchers
  • No Health Canada advisories or regulatory actions on record
  • FedEx overnight shipping across USA and Canada

Cons

  • Custom synthesis only - no off-the-shelf product catalog for individuals
  • Quote-based pricing rather than transparent shelf pricing
  • COAs are batch-specific and shipped with orders, not posted publicly
  • Multi-week turnaround typical for complex peptide syntheses
  • Limited consumer-facing community presence on Reddit or peptide forums
  • Website design is dated and lacks modern e-commerce checkout
  • Not a discreet-packaging research-chemical retailer

Certificate of Analysis (COA)

COA Available
This vendor provides in-house test results. These are less reliable than third-party testing.
Test Types:
HPLCMass Spectrometry

Custom peptides are delivered with an HPLC chromatogram, mass spectra, and a Certificate of Analysis prepared in-house. CanPeptide reports a 95% first-pass synthesis success rate compared to roughly 75% industry-average. COAs are tied to each specific synthesis order rather than posted as a public catalog.
