The wire

  1. 01The Wall Street Journal reports that Chinese chemical manufacturers known for fentanyl precursor supply have moved into selling bootleg peptides to US customers.
  2. 02The finding bears directly on the gray market for research peptides that clinicians and compounders are already fielding patient questions about, including purity and identity risk.
  3. 03The report does not establish how large the trade is or what enforcement, if any, US agencies will bring against the suppliers.
