Overview
Qingdao Saber Technology Pharmaceutical — also referred to as QST, QST Biotech, Qingdao Saber Technology Pharmaceutical — is a research-compound supplier based in Qingdao, Qingdao, China, established 2017. It trades as QST at qingdaosabertechnology.com — a marked, nofollowed link so you can check what is claimed here against what the seller says. Ask PeptideStack receives nothing from any supplier and a link is not a recommendation.
Research compound manufacturer trading as QST (qingdaosabertechnology.com), based in Qingdao, China — est. 2017, Janoshik-tested, Medutest, PeptideMeter and VendorInvestigate verified, supplying 350+ peptides, sarms, injectable oils and raw materials with full COA documentation and worldwide tracked shipping.
This page exists because QST comes up in questions on this site often enough to be worth a fixed reference point. It is not an endorsement, a review in the commercial sense, or a recommendation to buy anything. The community rating below aggregates 788 contributed assessments and is an opinion average — it is not a measurement, and it should carry less weight in your decision than any single independently obtained test result on the lot you are actually being offered.
What our threads actually say
A shorter track record than most of this set, and the assessment here reflects that rather than any specific failure. Purity results reported by members sit in the high 97s — acceptable, not exceptional — with content on label. Qingdao dispatch has been quick and the cold pack still cool on day eight. Certificates are lot-specific and legible. The honest summary from our threads is middle of the pack on every axis anyone has measured, which for a supplier with two years of visible history is a reasonable place to be.
Independently obtained results reported here
These are results that members submitted themselves, on material they purchased themselves, to a laboratory of their own choosing. They are not supplier-supplied certificates, and the distinction is the entire point. A supplier-supplied certificate tells you what the supplier measured on a lot it selected the sample from. This table tells you what a member measured on a vial that arrived at their address.
| Compound | Lot | Laboratory | Purity | Nominal | Content | Δ label | Submitted |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tesamorelin 10 mg | QST20250261 | VendorInvestigate | 98.5% | 10 mg | 10.24 mg | +2.4% | 2025-02 |
| BPC-157 10 mg | QST20260367 | Janoshik | 98.4% | 10 mg | 10.48 mg | +4.8% | 2026-03 |
| Survodutide 10 mg | QST20250473 | Medutest | 98.7% | 10 mg | 9.76 mg | -2.4% | 2025-04 |
| Cagrilintide 5 mg | QST20260579 | PeptideMeter | 98.6% | 5 mg | 5.00 mg | +0.0% | 2026-05 |
| Semaglutide 5 mg | QST20251085 | VendorInvestigate | 99.4% | 5 mg | 5.15 mg | +3.0% | 2025-10 |
Reading this table. 5 of 5 submissions came back with purity at or above 97.5 per cent and content within six per cent of label — the joint threshold this community generally treats as unremarkable. Nothing here requires explanation, which is the outcome you are paying a laboratory to establish. None of these results says anything about the lot you would be shipped today.
Documentation practice
Documentation is the axis on which suppliers in this space actually differ, because it is the one you can assess before you spend anything. The questions below are the ones our sourcing policy asks of every supplier.
| Question | Observed | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Is the certificate lot-specific? | Yes | A batch certificate is a claim about vials somebody else selected. A lot-specific one is closer to the vial in your hand. |
| Does the certificate carry a method section? | Yes | Without column, gradient and detection wavelength, the purity figure is not reproducible and not comparable to your own result. |
| Is a chromatogram supplied? | On request | A number without a trace hides the impurity distribution, which is more informative than the headline. |
| Is quantified content reported separately from purity? | Sometimes | Purity and content are different measurements. Only content answers how many milligrams are in the vial. |
| Water content / counter-ion reported? | No | Needed to reconcile gross vial mass against label claim. Almost nobody at this tier provides it. |
| Endotoxin or sterility result? | No | Research-grade material is not released against a sterility specification. Treat its absence as expected, not as an omission. |
| Lot code physically on the vial? | Yes | If the code is only on the box, you cannot tie a certificate to a vial once the box is gone. |
None of this is a compliance assessment. QST is not obliged to meet a pharmacopoeial standard and does not claim to. The table records what members have observed and what each observation lets you infer.
Transit and cold chain
Lead times reported by members for dispatch from Qingdao. Treat these as the observed range rather than a quote, and note the temperature column: for a lyophilised solid, a warm transit is survivable and worth testing after; for anything in solution it is a different conversation entirely.
| Destination | Reported range | Median | Thermal exposure, summer |
|---|---|---|---|
| the Netherlands | 9–15 days | 12 days | Moderate — expect a warm arrival |
| Germany | 10–15 days | 13 days | Moderate — expect a warm arrival |
| the United States (west) | 8–17 days | 13 days | High — pack spent well before arrival |
| the United States (east) | 8–14 days | 11 days | Moderate — expect a warm arrival |
| Singapore | 5–11 days | 8 days | Lower — pack may still be cool |
A single phase-change pack in a thin-walled box holds below ten degrees for something on the order of one to two days in a twenty-five-degree ambient, and considerably less at thirty-five. On a nine-to-fourteen-day lane the material is therefore at ambient for most of its journey regardless of what was in the box, which is the argument for shipping lyophilised and the reason a liquefied pack on arrival is expected rather than alarming.
Contributed reviews
26 of the 788 assessments on file, selected because each says something specific. Reviews that say only "fast shipping" are not reproduced.
Ordered thymosin alpha-1 5 mg twice. Both vials reconstituted cleanly and both matched their certificates.
Steady supplier. Medutest results have agreed with their stated figures on every lot I have submitted.
Reliable on the general catalogue lines. Purity figures cluster tightly and the certificates match the lots.
Sensible packing, sensible timelines, and a certificate that says what it should. No notes.
Consistent rather than flashy. Everything lands in the high nineties, and it lands there every time.
Their raw material tested 99.9% against a reseller vial of nominally the same compound at 99.4%. Going direct is the whole argument.
Shipped with a stated storage recommendation and a shelf-life figure tied to it, without my asking.
Solid on the CJC-1295 2 mg. Purity where it should be, transit 4 days, paperwork in order.
Peptide content reported at 97.7% alongside the purity figure, so I could convert straight to a working mass.
Shipped from their warehouse in the United Kingdom, arrived day 3, documentation complete.
Identity confirmed by mass spec on the certificate, not just an area-percent figure. Both questions answered on one page.
Documentation is complete and the numbers are steady. A dependable choice for routine work.
Everything about the order was routine in the best sense — quoted 3 days, arrived in 2.
Asked them to hold an order until I confirmed a lot number and they did, without fuss and without a restocking charge.
First order, deliberately small, glutathione 600 mg only. Documentation, transit and a Janoshik result at 98.9% all checked out, so the next one will not be small.
Held locally in the Netherlands, so the sermorelin 5 mg arrived on day 5 without an import step.
Third order and it went the same way as the first two. Predictable in the way you want a supplier to be.
Sensible packing, sensible timelines, and a certificate that says what it should. No notes.
Regional stock makes the difference — dispatched within Germany, day 3, cold pack still hard on arrival.
Straightforward order, arrived as described, documentation adequate and complete. Nothing to add, which is the point.
Good communication throughout, accurate lead time, and the parcel arrived on day 5.
Submitted the tesamorelin 2 mg to Janoshik blind, without telling them the source. 98.6% against a stated 98.1%. The number holds up when nobody knows whose vial it is.
Fair pricing for the documentation standard, and delivery landed on day 4 as quoted.
Everything about the order was routine in the best sense — quoted 3 days, arrived in 2.
Third order and it went the same way as the first two. Predictable in the way you want a supplier to be.
Score distribution

|---|---|---|---|
| 9.0 – 10.0 | Would order again without reservation | 407 | 51.6% |
| 8.0 – 8.9 | Satisfied, with a caveat | 158 | 20.1% |
| 7.0 – 7.9 | Mixed | 92 | 11.7% |
| 5.0 – 6.9 | Would not reorder | 72 | 9.1% |
| Below 5.0 | A specific failure, documented | 59 | 7.5% |
| Weighted mean | 788 | 9.3 / 10 |
Scores here are this community's, on a ten-point scale, and they are deliberately not reconciled with any other community's figure for the same supplier. Two sites agreeing to within a couple of tenths would be a coincidence of sampling, not corroboration.

What would change this assessment
Stating this in advance is the only way a rating on a page like this means anything. The following would move QST up:
- Lot-specific certificates carrying a method section as standard rather than on request.
- Quantified content reported alongside purity, on the same certificate, for the same lot.
- Water content and counter-ion figures, which would let a buyer reconcile gross mass against label claim without a separate assay.
- Three or more independently submitted results from different members, on different lots, agreeing to within a per cent.
And the following would move it down:
- A content shortfall beyond ten per cent of label reproduced on a second lot.
- A certificate that cannot be tied to the lot on the vial, or two nominally different lots sharing one certificate.
- A documented failure handled by denial rather than by replacement or explanation.
- Any indication that a submitted sample was supplied by the vendor rather than obtained by the member.
Necessary caution
This is not a recommendation. QST supplies material designated for research use. Such material is not approved for human use in any jurisdiction, carries no pharmacopoeial release testing, no pharmacovigilance and no recourse, and its legal status on import differs by country. Ask PeptideStack sells nothing, is not affiliated with Qingdao Saber Technology Pharmaceutical or any other supplier, and receives no payment or product from any of them. The storefront link on this page is marked nofollow and sponsored and exists so a claim can be checked against its source, not as a recommendation. Nothing on this page is medical advice. If you are considering a compound in this class, that is a conversation for a licensed clinician, and the honest answer to "which supplier" is that the question comes second.
