We've been shipping quite a bit of this lately to labs running weight management studies, and most buyers go with the 10mg vials for their repeated-dose protocols. It's basically a 39-amino acid peptide with a molecular weight of 3823.3 g/mol, and it's soluble in sterile water for reconstitution—just store it at 2-8°C in a dry environment to keep it stable for 24 months or so. 3823.3 is pretty hefty for a peptide, but that's what gives it the multi-agonist activity researchers are after.
Each batch gets HPLC verification for >99% purity, and we also check endotoxin levels (under 1.0 EU/mg) as a matter of course. The sterile manufacturing process means the comes in glass vials with rubber stoppers, but it's not suited for anything beyond in vitro or animal work since we don't have in vivo data on our end. ISO 9001 sets the quailty baseline, though we usually have COAs on hand within a day or so after you order.
What you'll actually recieve is a sealed vial with the batch number and expiration date printed on the label—usually 5mg, 10mg, or 15mg depending on what you picked. The powder looks like a small white puck at the bottom, and one thing buyers don't always think to ask is that it takes about 30 seconds of gentle swirling to fully dissolve, not vigorous shaking. We don't include a retest policy in the standard packaing, but if you request one before shipping, our company can attach a copy of HPLC trace.
Just keep in mind that the shelf life assumes constant refrigeration, and if it sits at room temperature for a week, the activity degrades faster than you'd expect. The 15mg vials are less common in our inventory, so confirm lead time if you need those—we usually have stock, but it varies by batch. Also, we've noticed that the 5mg format is easier to handle when you're doing serial dilutions for dose-response work.
Anyway, the CAS number is on the COA if your purchasing department needs it for documentation. The sterility guarantee holds only if you reconstitute the peptide within a clean environment—opening the vial in a dirty fume hood basically defeats the purpose. We've had one batch flagged for slightly elevated endotoxin once, but that was about 18 months ago, and we tightened the filtration step since then.
We don't have a strict MOQ — you can order as few as 1 vial, whether it's 5mg, 10mg, or 15mg. Bulk discounts kick in at 10+ vials.
Yes, every batch comes with a Certificate of Analysis that includes the HPLC purity data showing >99%. You can request it before or after purchase.
Just add sterile water directly to the vial — it's fully soluble. Use aseptic technique, and once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within a few days.
For in-stock items, we ship within 1-3 business days. International orders usually arrive in 5-10 business days depending on customs.
We can customize vial sizes or labels for bulk orders — just reach out with your requirements. Standard sizes are 5mg, 10mg, and 15mg.
