Batch-specific documentation may include HPLC purity, identity confirmation and lot information. Refer to the supplied COA or the COA policy for current documentation scope.

Reconstitution and handling

Allow lyophilised material to equilibrate before opening to reduce condensation risk. Add validated solvent slowly down the vial wall, avoid vigorous shaking, and record the final concentration in the laboratory notebook or LIMS.

Use aseptic technique, calibrated pipettes or syringes, and validated diluent choices for the assay system. Reconstituted materials should be aliquoted where appropriate to reduce repeated freeze-thaw exposure.

Storage

Store unopened material according to the stated condition: -20°C recommended (research-only). Keep vials sealed, dry and protected from light. Reconstituted solutions should be stored under validated laboratory conditions and discarded according to internal SOPs and applicable research-waste rules.

Research-use statement

Semax 30 mg is sold by Peptide Shop for research use only. It is not a medicine, food, cosmetic, supplement or diagnostic product. Buyers are responsible for ensuring lawful purchase, storage, handling and disposal under their institutional and local requirements.

FAQs

What is Semax used for in research?

Semax is studied for cognitive enhancement, neuroprotection, BDNF modulation, and neurotransmitter regulation. It's based on ACTH(4-10).

How does Semax work?

Semax modulates neurotrophins (BDNF, NGF), influences dopamine and serotonin, and affects gene expression related to neuroplasticity.

How is Semax different from Selank?

Semax focuses on cognitive enhancement and neuroprotection; Selank is more anxiolytic. Semax is based on ACTH; Selank on tuftsin.

How should Semax be stored?

Store lyophilised Semax at -20°C. Once reconstituted, keep at 2-8°C and use within 3-4 weeks.

What purity is your Semax?

Our Semax is ≥99% pure as verified by HPLC. Each batch includes a Certificate of Analysis.

What is BDNF?

BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) is crucial for neuroplasticity, learning, and memory. Semax is reported to enhance BDNF expression.

How do I reconstitute Semax?

Reconstitute in sterile bacteriostatic water. Add solvent slowly and gently swirl to dissolve.

What sizes are available?

Semax is available in 5mg, 10mg, and 30mg vials.

What is semax?

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) derived from ACTH 4-10. It is studied for neuroprotective, cognitive-enhancing, and BDNF-upregulating effects in preclinical models. CAS number 80714-61-0.

What is BDNF and how does semax relate to it?

BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) is a neurotrophin supporting neuronal survival and plasticity. Preclinical research has examined semax for its ability to upregulate BDNF and NGF expression in brain tissue, making it a tool for neuroprotection and synaptic plasticity research.

How does semax differ from selank?

Semax is derived from ACTH and primarily studied for cognitive and neuroprotective effects. Selank is derived from tuftsin and primarily studied for anxiolytic pathway effects. They are complementary neuropeptides with distinct mechanisms.

Why is semax now supplied in 10 mg vials?

Semax is supplied in 10 mg to align with EU market standards. Most European research vendors stock semax in 10 mg format as the predominant supply unit.
