Four separate review fields

Existing overall assessment: Listed

The overall assessment is not an average of these four fields. Each field answers a different question and cannot offset another.

Substantiated

Who is behind the laboratory?

A responsible legal entity and its leadership or operator are publicly substantiated.

Boundary: Identity and responsibility do not establish analytical competence.

View 4 signals and their evidence
Signal profile - Counts show composition, not a score. Core evidence 2 Supporting evidence 2 Boundary 0 Contradiction 0
  • Positive Registered at the District Court of Dresden (Amtsgericht Dresden) under commercial register number HRB 24247.
  • Positive At least one named key person is independently attributed to this laboratory: Dr. Dirk Freitag-Stechl (+6 weitere).
  • Positive The registered address Carl-Eschebach-Straße 7, D-01454 Radeberg, Germany is confirmed by Amtsgericht Dresden.
  • Positive Dr. Dirk Freitag-Stechl holds a PhD in chemistry and an MBA, and has been Managing Director since 2008.
Not publicly established

Is the procedure technically substantiated for peptides?

Public evidence does not currently substantiate competence for the relevant method and peptide matrix.

Boundary: Lack of accreditation is normal here and is not a negative signal.

Signal profile - Counts show composition, not a score. Core evidence 0 Supporting evidence 0 Boundary 2 Contradiction 0
  • Neutral No verifiable accreditation. For a laboratory that accepts private samples this is the norm, not a mark against it.
  • Neutral DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 is claimed, but no entry in the accreditation body's own register could be cited; the claim can neither be verified nor refuted.
No public verification route

Can a report be traced back through the issuer?

No public verification route was found. This is normal and not a shortcoming.

Boundary: Report confirmation establishes neither analytical competence nor the contents of an individual vial.

  • Neutral No public route for confirming a report with the issuer was found. This is neutral; public verification is an optional report-governance feature.
Not publicly established

Has actual measurement performance been checked externally?

No suitable independent evidence of actual measurement performance was publicly established.

Boundary: Testimonials, report volume and average purity values are not external performance evidence.

No public signals in this review field.

Our honest take

Reports from CUP Laboratorien Dr. Freitag GmbH are based on a verified legal entity, a confirmed physical address in Radeberg, and named leadership with documented tenure.

  • Dr. Dirk Freitag-Stechl has served as Managing Director since 2008 and holds a PhD in chemistry.
  • The company is registered at Amtsgericht Dresden under HRB 24247, with commercial register data listing incorporation on 14 November 2005 and a stated founding year of 1991.
  • The lab publicly offers radiochemical purity analysis, radiochemical yield determination, and radiolabelling of active substances including peptides, with determination of assay and impurities.

These are concrete, checkable facts. The rating remains 'Listed' rather than 'Substantiated' because the public evidence does not yet converge far enough for a level-1 statement: no independent evidence of current analytical performance for the relevant method and matrix was found, and no public laboratory-controlled report verification route exists. These are neutral limits on how far this public review can go, not negative findings.

DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 and GMP accreditation are each claimed but could not be verified in an accreditation body's own register; the claims can neither be confirmed nor refuted.

No community, forum, or independent scientific references evaluating the lab's analytical quality were found. No concrete open concern was identified. These are signals, not a verdict.

Accreditation

DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025: Claimed, unverified ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation claim appears only in third-party industry profile (VUP.de, source [10]) attributed to company's own statements ('nach eigenen Angaben'). No accreditation body, certificate number, validity date, or scope provided. Company's own quality page (source [14]) does not mention ISO/IEC 17025 at all - only GMP certification and FDA inspection. No DAkkS or other ILAC-MRA register entry found in any of the 18 sources.

GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice): Claimed, unverified Company's own quality page (source [14]) states 'GMP certified, FDA inspected' and references §67 AMG. No certificate number or issuing body provided. Redica Systems (source [12]) reports 5 known FDA inspections, last on 26 Jan 2022. GMP is distinct from ISO/IEC 17025.

Access and offering · 3
  • Positive The lab offers analysis of precursors for radiopharmaceuticals, explicitly including peptides, with determination of assay and impurities.
  • Neutral The laboratory's public ordering route addresses business customers only; no private ordering route was found.
  • Neutral No prices are mentioned; contact required.
Public and digital trail · 3
  • Positive Stated as founded in 1991, with commercial register data listing formation/incorporation date as 14 November 2005.
  • Neutral The site uses a modular theme (e.g., recurring menu structure, generic layouts).
  • Neutral The sources contain no forum, Reddit, or community-board mentions of CUP Laboratorien Dr. Freitag GmbH, and no independent scientific or press references evaluating the lab's analytical quality are present. All available sources are marketing materials, business directories, and regulatory database entries with no community discourse evidenced.
