4813 grams per mole is the molecular weight, which makes it one of the larger peptides you'll handle in the lab — it's a dual GIP and GLP-1 agonist, so you're looking at a pretty complex molecule that targets both receptors at once for metabolic research.
We usually have this in stock as a white to off-white powder, and it come in vials — 5mg, 10mg, 15mg, 20mg, 30mg, 40mg, or 60mg per vial, with 10 vials per kit. The purity runs above 99% by HPLC, which is better than reagent grade for this type of work, and we'll send the COA with the shipment (usually 2-4 weeks lead time, but check before ordering for large quantities). What it does is stimulate insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent way, so it's not going to cause hypoglycemia in same manner some other compounds might. Most buyers go with the 10mg vials for initial dosing studies, but the 5mg is easier to handle if you're just starting out. Actually, the loose lump form can be a bit tricky to weigh out on standdard lab balances — we recommend pre-weighing into smaller aliquots after reconstitution, but that's just form experience handling it.
This isn't for human use — it's strictly research only, and we don't recommend it for anything beyond in vitro or animal studies where you're looking at glycemic control pathways. The CAS number is 2023788-19-2, and the EC number is 200-001-8, though you probably won't need those unless you're logging it into an inventory system.
One detail a lot of buyers miss: the powder is hygroscopic, so you'll want to store it in a desiccator at -20°C or so, and let it come to room tempearture before opening to avoid condensation. It's not suited for long-term storage in solution — reconstitute fresh for each experiment, basically. We've had a few complaints about clumping after a month or two, but that's pretty much standard for peptides of this size.
Anyway, the synthesis uses solid-phase methods with advanced purification steps, and teh final product is typically >99% pure by HPLC, though our company can provide the specific batch data if you need tighter tolerances. You'll get a 10-vial kit in the packaing mentioned, and the MOQ is usually one kit — we don't split vials for single units, so plan accordingly if you're only needing 5mg or 10mg total.
We typically start at 10 vials per order, but if you need a smaller trial pack, just reach out — we can work something out.
Yes, we provide a COA with every batch, confirming the HPLC purity is over 99% and the appearance matches the spec.
We can adjust vial sizes for larger orders — just let us know your target dosage, and we'll quote the fill.
Each vial is filled under nitrogen and sealed with a flip-top cap. Store in a freezer at -20°C, and it stays stable for 24 months.
Absolutely, we include a basic protocol with each order — sterile water or bacteriostatic water, gentle swirling, and no vigorous shaking.
