SS-31 (Elamipretide) 5 mg from Peptide Tech is a premium, lyophilized research-use-only (RUO) tetrapeptide supplied at ≥99% purity (HPLC & MS verified). Also known as MTP-131, SS-31 is a mitochondria-targeting Szeto-Schiller peptide designed for in-vitro studies in bioenergetics, membrane biophysics, and redox chemistry where sequence fidelity, analytical confirmation, and cold-chain integrity are essential.

Potential Applications in Research
Strictly for in-vitro, cell-based, or biochemical experiments. No health, diagnostic, or therapeutic claims.
- Mitochondrial membrane potential assays (e.g., TMRM/JC-1) in cultured cell lines under controlled stressors.
- Cardiolipin interaction studies using liposomes/vesicles and biophysical readouts (SPR, ITC, fluorescence anisotropy).
- Cellular bioenergetics (oxygen-consumption/extracellular-acidification) to map pathway responses in defined media.
- Reactive-oxygen-species (ROS) panels (e.g., H2DCFDA, MitoSOX) with time-course profiling and antioxidant controls.
- Analytical method development (RP-HPLC/LC–MS/MS) for identity, purity, stability, and recovery across buffers/temperatures.
Quality, Storage & Handling
Every lot is confirmed by HPLC (purity) and MS (identity); batch COA is accessible via the on-vial QR. Independent U.S. labs verify purity, quantity, and endotoxin.
- Storage (lyophilized): −20 °C long-term or 2–8 °C short-term; keep desiccated and protected from light.
- After reconstitution: Aliquot and store at ≤ −20 °C (or −80 °C per SOP); avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution tips: Use sterile water or compatible buffer; gently swirl to dissolve. If needed by your SOP, pass through a 0.22 µm filter and aliquot promptly.
Shipping & Fulfillment
Ships in validated cold-chain packaging. In-stock orders placed before the daily cutoff ship the same day. 2-Day FedEx/UPS is standard, with overnight options available. Automated text/email updates included; international shipping available where permitted.
Compliance & RUO Disclaimer
For laboratory research only. Not a drug, cosmetic, food, or household chemical. Not for human or animal use, ingestion, diagnostic, or therapeutic applications. Buyers warrant they are qualified to handle RUO materials under applicable laws and institutional guidelines.
FAQs
- What are common synonyms?
- SS-31, Elamipretide, MTP-131 (same tetrapeptide; naming varies by context).
- What purity do you provide?
- Each 5 mg vial is ≥99% by HPLC with MS identity confirmation; third-party testing is performed on every lot (COA via QR).
- How should I reconstitute it?
- Use sterile water or a compatible buffer and gently invert to dissolve. If your protocol requires sterility, 0.22 µm filter and aliquot to avoid repeat freeze–thaw.
- Is this intended for human or veterinary use?
- No. This product is sold strictly as RUO and must not be used in humans or animals.
