Lab Reports & Certificates

Every certificate behind a Coremax jar, published in full — with the issuing laboratory named on each one, so you can see exactly who tested what.

The creatine itself

The certificate of analysis for the raw creatine monohydrate, issued by the company that manufactures it. This is what the assay, contaminant and microbiology figures refer to.

How to read this page. Coremax creatine monohydrate is manufactured to USP specification and blended, packed and licensed in India under FSSAI manufacturing licence 10723999001935 and marketing licence 10725994000807. Each document above names the company that issued it, so you can tell a raw-material certificate from a finished-batch document without guessing.

What these numbers mean

A certificate of analysis is only useful if you can read it. Here is what each line on the table above is actually measuring, in plain English.

Content assay
How much of the powder is actually creatine monohydrate, measured by HPLC. A pharmacopoeia-grade result sits between 98.5% and 101.0%.
Creatinine
Creatine degrades into creatinine over time and under heat. A low figure means the material was made and stored properly — it is the freshness indicator.
Dicyandiamide (DCD)
A leftover starting material from creatine synthesis. Serious manufacturers hold it under 50 ppm; most Indian brands never publish the number at all.
Dihydrotriazine (DHT)
A by-product formed when synthesis runs too hot or too alkaline. It is the impurity that most clearly separates careful production from careless.
Heavy metals
Lead, arsenic, mercury and cadmium, each measured against its own limit by atomic absorption. These accumulate in the body, so limits are strict.
Microbiology
Total bacterial count, yeast and mould, plus specific screens for E. coli, Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus.
Particle size / mesh
How finely the powder is milled. "200 mesh" is the micronised grade — it dissolves faster and settles less than standard creatine.

Frequently asked questions

Is Coremax creatine lab tested?

Yes, and we publish the certificates on this page rather than only claiming it. The creatine monohydrate we use is tested against United States Pharmacopeia (USP) methods for assay, creatinine, dicyandiamide, dihydrotriazine, heavy metals and microbiology, and the full certificate of analysis is linked above with the testing laboratory named on it.

What does a 99.51% assay actually mean?

It means 99.51% of the material is creatine monohydrate on a dry basis, measured by HPLC against a reference standard. The pharmacopoeia specification is 98.5% to 101.0%, so that result sits comfortably inside spec. Figures above 100% are normal in assay testing and reflect measurement tolerance, not more-than-pure material.

What is dicyandiamide, and why does it matter in creatine?

Dicyandiamide is an unreacted precursor left over from creatine synthesis. It has no benefit and is capped at 50 ppm on a quality specification. It matters because it is one of the few numbers that genuinely separates well-made creatine from cheap creatine — and it is almost never published by brands selling in India.

Where do I find the batch number on my jar?

It is printed on the label alongside the manufacturing and expiry dates. Enter your authentication code on the verification page and the result will link you straight to the certificates for that exact batch.

Does Coremax creatine contain banned substances?

The certificate covers identity, purity, contaminant and microbiology testing under USP methods. Coremax is single-ingredient creatine monohydrate with no proprietary blends, so there is nothing in the jar beyond what the label and the certificate describe.

Why publish the certificates at all?

Because counterfeit and adulterated supplements are a real problem on Indian marketplaces, and "lab tested" printed on a label proves nothing on its own. Publishing the documents lets you check the claim instead of trusting it.
