Epitalon 10mg
Epitalon (Epithalone; Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) is a synthetic tetrapeptide derived from epithalamin, a polypeptide extract from the bovine pineal gland. Originally developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, it has been the subject of over three decades of preclinical research.
In laboratory settings, Epitalon is studied for its putative role as a telomerase activator — it is reported to upregulate telomerase activity in somatic cells in controlled in-vitro systems, making it a research tool in telomere biology and cellular ageing models. Researchers also investigate its interactions with neuroendocrine pathways, particularly melatonin secretion regulation and hypothalamic–pituitary axis modulation in animal models.
Each 10-vial bundle contains ten 10mg vials of lyophilised Epitalon, sufficient for extended research protocols. All vials are manufactured via validated synthesis processes and released after stringent identity, purity, and appearance testing.
Technical Specifications
All Mega Lab Peptides products are supplied strictly for laboratory research use. Not medications, supplements, foods, or cosmetics. Not for human or veterinary use. By purchasing you confirm you are a qualified researcher aged 18 or over.
Remove the vial from cold storage and allow it to reach room temperature before opening. This prevents condensation forming inside the vial and disturbing the lyophilised powder.
Always reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (BW). Avoid distilled or sterile water for long-term storage — BW contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol which preserves peptide stability and prevents microbial growth.
Insert the needle into the vial and allow BW to run slowly down the inside wall. Do not inject directly onto the lyophilised powder — the pressure can degrade the peptide structure.
Gently swirl the vial — never shake. Continue until the powder is fully dissolved and the solution is clear. Shaking introduces air bubbles and can cause aggregation.
Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within 30 days. Never freeze a reconstituted vial. Lyophilised (un-reconstituted) vials should be stored at –20°C, away from direct light.
