Most labs running dose-response assays on melanogenesis pathways start with a 10mg vial reconstituted in sterile water—it’s basically the standerd for these studies, though we’ve seen some push it to 20mg for longer time courses.
We’re seeing this freeze-dried powder go into work on UV-induced pigmentation models, where the >99% purity (verified by HPLC on our end) pretty much right out of the equation.
It’s soluble in water, which is convenient, but you’ll want to store it under -20°C in those sealed vials with desiccant—opened vials degrade fast if you don’t keep them cold, and we usually have stock but confirm lead time for orders over 50 vials or so.
The molecular weight is 1024.18 g/mol, and CAS 121062-08-6 is what you’ll see on the COA—better than reagent grade for this because tighter tolerance on the peptide chain means fewer side products messing with your results.
4 weeks is the typical shelf life once reconstituted if frozen properly, but teh lyophilized powder holds for about 12 months or so at -20°C—don’t expect it to work well in topical formulations, it’s really only suited for injection-based research protocols.
The MOQ for this product typically starts at one sealed vial, but we can discuss larger quantities depending on your lab's needs. Contact us for exact terms if you're planning bulk research.
Yes, we supply GMP certification and a COA for every batch, confirming the >99% purity. Just request it with your order and we'll include it in the shipment.
Store it in a freezer at or below -20°C in the sealed vial with desiccant. Keeping it dry and cold is key to preserving the >99% purity for your research.
The sealed vials with desiccant are meant for long-term storage under -20°C. You can reconstitute the powder with sterile water in the same vial, but only when you're ready to use it.
Lead time is usually 5-7 business days for standard quantities, but larger batch orders may take a bit longer. We'll confirm the exact timeline when you place the order.
