By score: Apicore LLC (RK Pharma) (98), AmbioPharm (95), AnaSpec (90), Bio-Synthesis Inc (90), GenScript (90). Scores measure checkable evidence, not product quality, and paid placement does not change them.

Which custom peptide synthesis companies in the United States hold US Drug Master Files?

Apicore LLC (RK Pharma) and AmbioPharm hold active Type II DMFs for peptide APIs in FDA's DMF list. A DMF is a confidential file submitted to FDA; FDA does not approve DMFs, but drug applications can reference them.

How should I check a supplier before ordering?

Confirm the legal entity, ask for lot-specific certificates of analysis that the testing lab can verify, check FDA warning letters and import alerts, and for GMP material ask for regulator inspection records rather than marketing claims.
