Description
Research use only
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and a highly selective agonist of the ghrelin/growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a). It stimulates growth hormone release without affecting other pituitary hormones such as cortisol, prolactin, ACTH, or thyroid-stimulating hormone, offering a clean and targeted tool for endocrine and metabolic research.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder in vials (5 mg). For long-term storage, keep at –20 °C. After reconstitution (e.g., in sterile water or buffer), aliquot and store at 2–8 °C for short-term use or –20 °C for long-term preservation. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain peptide integrity.
For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use. Not a drug, food, or cosmetic.
