High-Purity Tetrapeptide for Telomere and Longevity Research
$180.00$165.00
Epitalon 50mg (Grail Formula) is a high-concentration research peptide composed of the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. As part of the "Grail Formula" series, this product is independently verified by Liquilabs s.r.o. (Czechia) to achieve an assay purity of above 99.8%.
Epitalon is a synthetic analog of Epithalamin, a peptide naturally produced in the pineal gland. It is primarily researched for its potential to stimulate telomerase activity, which may influence cellular longevity and stress adaptation.
Core Research Highlights
In laboratory and in-vitro settings, Epitalon 50mg is utilized to explore:
Telomere-Associated Mechanisms: Researchers study its role in activating the enzyme telomerase, which helps maintain the length of telomeres (the protective caps on chromosomes).
Cellular Longevity: It serves as a biochemical model for studying aging processes and the modulation of cellular lifespans.
Circadian Biological Processes: Epitalon is investigated for its influence on the pineal gland and the regulation of melatonin production, which governs sleep-wake cycles.
Stress Adaptation: It is used in in-vitro research to evaluate how cells adapt to oxidative stress and environmental challenges.
Antioxidant Pathways: Studies explore its potential to reduce lipid peroxidation and enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD).

Preparation and Handling
The 50mg format is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder to ensure stability and structural consistency for high-quality scientific outcomes.
Reconstitution: For shipments within the EU, the product includes bacteriostatic water. Outside the EU, only the peptide vial is provided.
Batch Verification: The current batch (GD102025056) is fully validated for stability and reproducibility.
Required Supplies: Standard research tools, such as sterile syringes and alcohol pads, are necessary for handling.
Storage and Safety Guidelines
To maintain the peptide's structural integrity:
Lyophilized (Dry) Storage: Store at -20°C for long-term stability (up to 2 years). For short-term use, it can be kept at 2-8°C.
Post-Reconstitution: Once dissolved, the solution should be stored at 2-8°C and used within a period consistent with laboratory neuropeptide standards (typically 21 days).
Safety Warning: This product is strictly for laboratory research only. It is not for human or veterinary use, diagnostic procedures, or therapeutic applications.
