Related compounds
Within our cellular research collection, this formula is most often compared with Glutathione, a tripeptide antioxidant (gamma-Glu-Cys-Gly), Thymosin α-1, a 28 amino acid thymic peptide and Thymalin, a thymic peptide complex. Running related compounds side by side, with matched vehicle controls and the same assay conditions, makes it easier to attribute differences in a readout to the compound itself rather than to handling or batch effects.
Mitochondrial peptides, telomere and thymic peptides, and redox cofactors used in research on cellular energy, senescence and immune signaling. Each lot is supplied with documentation for laboratory records.
Choosing a size
This formula is offered as a single 10ml vial at $34.99, which works out to about $3.50 per ml. A single size keeps batch records simple, since every vial you order comes from the same fill.
Working with it in the laboratory
This formula is supplied ready mixed, so no reconstitution is needed. Inspect the solution before use, use aseptic technique for every withdrawal and keep the vial refrigerated between uses. Record the batch number, the date the vial was opened and each volume withdrawn in your lab notebook.
Storage and stability
Store refrigerated at 2 to 8 °C and protect from light. Do not freeze. Inspect the solution before use and discard it if it appears cloudy or discolored.
Batch documentation
Every lot carries a batch number that links it to a certificate of analysis recording identity by mass spectrometry and purity by HPLC. Request the COA for your batch at any time, and keep it with your lab records alongside the concentration and date of reconstitution.
Research use only
This formula is sold strictly for in vitro and preclinical laboratory research. It is not a drug, food, dietary supplement or cosmetic, it has not been approved for any human or veterinary use, and it must not be administered to people or animals. Researchers are responsible for following the rules of their institution and country. Read our full research use disclaimer.
