Description

Overview

Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide developed from studies of pineal-gland peptide extracts.

In the laboratory it is used in cell-culture studies of telomerase activity, telomere length, chromatin structure and gene expression. No claims are made regarding effects in humans or animals.

Typical in-vitro applications

  • Telomerase-activity assays (TRAP) in cell culture
  • Telomere-length measurement studies
  • Gene-expression and chromatin studies

Compound data

  • Compound: Epitalon (Epithalon)
  • Compound class: Synthetic tetrapeptide
  • Sequence: Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly
  • Net content: 10 mg per vial (stated for analytical and preparative calculations)
  • Purity specification: โ‰ฅ99% (HPLC); measured value on the lot certificate of analysis

Storage & handling

  • Store the sealed vial at โˆ’20 ยฐC, dry and protected from light.
  • Allow the vial to reach room temperature before opening to avoid condensation.
  • Handle with standard laboratory protective equipment (gloves, lab coat, eye protection).
  • Shipped at ambient temperature in insulated, tamper-evident packaging.

Analytical documentation

HPLC purity and LC-MS identity are tested for every lot. Certificates of analysis and third-party test reports are published in our COA library on the About Us page.
