Research Overview
What BPC-157 is
BPC-157 is a synthetic pentadecapeptide, a 15-residue sequence (Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val) corresponding to a partial region of a larger gastric protein described in the research literature as Body Protection Compound. It has a molecular weight of approximately 1,419 Da and is notable among short peptides for its stability in acidic conditions, a property that has made it a convenient subject for in-vitro work.
Research background
BPC-157 is one of the most extensively studied peptides in its class, with a body of preclinical literature spanning several decades. Published work has examined the compound in rodent models of tendon, ligament, muscle and gastrointestinal tissue, as well as in cell-culture systems investigating fibroblast behaviour and angiogenic signalling. It has not been approved as a medicine in any jurisdiction, and Megalab supplies it strictly as a research reagent.
Specification
Each vial contains 5mg of BPC-157 as a lyophilised powder. Purity is confirmed at ≥99% by HPLC on every batch. The batch record shown on this page identifies the current lot and its analysis date where published; a Certificate of Analysis is available on request.
Handling and storage
Keep unopened vials at −20°C and away from light. Bring to room temperature before opening. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water by directing the diluent against the inside wall of the vial, then swirl gently until the powder is fully dissolved. Do not shake. Store the reconstituted solution at 2–8°C and use within 30 days. Use the peptide calculator to obtain concentration figures for your chosen diluent volume.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the sequence of BPC-157?
Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val, a 15-residue linear peptide with a molecular weight of approximately 1,419 Da.
Is BPC-157 stable once reconstituted?
BPC-157 is comparatively stable for a short peptide, but reconstituted solution should still be refrigerated at 2–8°C and used within 30 days for reliable results.
Is BPC-157 available as part of a bundle?
Yes. BPC-157 is paired with TB-500 in the Wolverine Stack, and any five single peptides in one order qualify for a complimentary vial of bacteriostatic water.
