Epithalon 10 mg

What is Epithalon?

Epithalon is the tetrapeptide alanyl-glutamyl-aspartyl-glycine, the synthetic counterpart of the pineal preparation epithalamin, from the Khavinson bioregulator series. It is studied for effects on telomerase expression and pineal signalling. Pepstral supplies it as a lyophilized powder for in-vitro laboratory research only.

What is Epithalon studied for?

• Telomerase expression assays
• Cellular senescence models
• Pineal and melatonin signalling research
• Short-peptide bioregulator comparisons

All applications above are in-vitro or preclinical research contexts. Epithalon is sold for laboratory research only and is not for human or animal use.

What does the certificate for lot EPI-2609-X show?

Every lot of Epithalon is tested by an independent US laboratory before it is listed. The report for lot EPI-2609-X is in the COA library and the lot number printed on the vial matches it. The current results:

How is Epithalon handled and stored?

Sealed vials are stored at -20°C away from light and keep for 24 months. To reconstitute, add bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial and swirl until clear; never shake. Once in solution, keep at 2 to 8°C and use within the 28-day window on the certificate. The reconstitution guide covers volumes and syringe units and the concentration table gives the numbers for this vial.
