Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide synthesized in the 1980s by a team led by V. Khazin and V. Anisimov in St. Petersburg. Since then, it has been the subject of academic literature – over 100 independent publications are dedicated to it in the PubMed database. The molecule belongs to the group of short synthetic tetrapeptides studied in the field of cell biology.
In academic literature, Epitalon most often appears in the context of chronobiology and aging research as scientific disciplines – as a subject of investigation into cellular cycles and regulatory mechanisms. Scientific teams study it in models focused on cell biology and molecular clocks.
In the laboratory, it is used as a reference analytical standard – for HPLC calibration, mass spectrometry (LC-MS), and comparative binding experiments. Cerebrotech supplies it as a lyophilized powder in a glass vial with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), with HPLC-verified purity ≥ 98%. A mass spectrum is available upon request for each batch.
A compatible solvent for reconstitution – bacteriostatic water – is available separately in our catalog. The product is intended exclusively for laboratory in-vitro research, biochemical analysis, and academic purposes. It is not a drug, dietary supplement, or cosmetic product. It is not intended for human or animal consumption, application to the body surface, ingestion, or inhalation. Sale is restricted to individuals 18+ years of age.
