EPITALON 10MG

Epitalon, also spelled Epithalon, is a synthetic tetrapeptide research compound studied in laboratory settings for its role in telomerase and pineal peptide research. Modeled on the naturally occurring pineal peptide epithalamin, Epitalon is examined for its interaction with telomere and gene-expression research models. Each vial from Central Peptides contains 10 mg of high-purity Epitalon, third-party verified and supplied with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) for research use only. As one of the most studied peptide bioregulators in longevity research, Epitalon remains a frequently requested compound among Canadian laboratories.

Epitalon Research Applications

Epitalon is a tetrapeptide — a chain of four amino acids — with the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (AEDG). It is among the smallest peptides studied in bioregulation research. First synthesized in the 1990s within the research program of Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, it was modeled on the amino acid composition of epithalamin, a peptide extract derived from the pineal gland. Its sequence contains two acidic residues — glutamic acid and aspartic acid — giving the molecule a net negative charge at physiological pH.

In controlled laboratory environments, researchers study Epitalon for its reported activity as a telomerase modulator. Research has examined its effects on telomere length in cultured human cells, its reported ability to bind DNA and modulate gene expression, and its role in pineal melatonin and circadian rhythm research in animal models.

Common research areas where Epitalon is examined include:

• Telomerase activity and telomere-length research models
• Pineal peptide and circadian rhythm research
• Gene expression and DNA-interaction studies
• Cellular aging and bioregulation research

Purity and Quality Verification

Every batch of Epitalon sold by Central Peptides is manufactured under controlled synthesis and purification processes to ensure stability, consistency, and structural integrity for scientific research applications. Our compounds are independently tested and verified at 99% purity through High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry.

Each order includes access to a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, allowing researchers to verify identity, purity percentage, and testing details before use. This batch-level traceability is part of our commitment to transparency and quality control across our full research catalog. Researchers who require documented purity standards for their work can review the COA before and after purchase, ensuring every vial meets the same verified specification.

Storage and Handling

Epitalon is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder for maximum stability during shipping and storage. Lyophilization removes moisture from the compound, which helps preserve its structural integrity over time and allows it to remain stable during transit. For long-term integrity, store the lyophilized compound in a cool, dry environment away from light, ideally at -20°C.

Once reconstituted for research, Epitalon is soluble in water and should be kept refrigerated at 2-8°C. To preserve compound integrity, aliquot the reconstituted material to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and use within an appropriate window to maintain consistency in research results.

Shipping Across Canada

Central Peptides ships Epitalon and all research compounds across Canada in discreet, temperature-conscious packaging. Orders are typically processed within 24 hours and delivered within 3 to 5 business days. Free delivery is available on qualifying orders over the threshold listed at checkout.

As a Canadian-based supplier, we offer domestic fulfillment, which means faster delivery times and fewer customs complications compared to ordering from international sources. Every shipment is packaged to protect the compound during transit and to maintain privacy.
