Purity and Price Are Not Correlated!

The prices charged by biomedical reagent vendors for a given product tell you
nothing about the purity.

For example, as shown in our Purity/Price Comparison Table for Rapamycin you
can pay:

    $263 to Sigma for 1 mg of 95% pure rapamycin

    $188 to Calbiochem for 1 mg of 98% pure rapamycin

    $35 to LC Labs for 50 mg of >99% pure rapamycin, which is less than $1
    per mg


Another example is cyclopamine:

    14 suppliers charge $80 to $200 for 1 mg; ten of those suppliers make no
    purity claim at all, and the other four claim only 98%

    LC Labs' price for 25 mg of >99% pure cyclopamine is $116 — 1/20th to
    1/50th of the cost from other major suppliers

Please peruse some of our other Purity/Price Comparison Tables.  The
picture is clear -- price tells you nothing about quality.
