Adamax liquid spray

What is it for?

Adamax, an adamantane-conjugated analogue of the Semax family, in solution at 1.0 mg/mL — 10 mg across a 10 mL atomiser, a nominal 100 micrograms per actuation. The adamantyl group is what distinguishes it from the parent peptide and is the reason it is catalogued separately rather than as a Semax variant. Refrigerate and protect from light.

• What adamantane conjugation does to a peptideA rigid carbon cage bolted onto a peptide changes its lipophilicity, its resistance to exopeptidases and its handling. Why chemists reach for it, and what it costs.
• Why research peptide prices vary so much between suppliersThe same compound can cost half as much from one supplier as another. Sequence length, purification passes, net peptide content, per-lot testing and fill accuracy explain most of the gap. Here is where each shows up on the certificate, with a worked price-per-net-milligram comparison.
• Why the vial looks empty: what a lyophilized peptide should look likeA 5 mg vial of lyophilized peptide holds a few milligrams of powder, often a thin film or a small cake you can barely see. That is normal. Here is what freeze-drying leaves behind, what a good vial looks like, the appearances that are fine, the ones that are not, and what to do before you open it.
