Thymalin is a thymic peptide complex (low–molecular weight peptides isolated from thymus tissue) studied primarily for its role in immune system regulation, T-cell maturation, hematopoiesis, and immune restoration in aging and disease states. Human and animal studies—many originating from Russian and Eastern European research programs—suggest thymalin supports immune reconstitution, improved infection resistance, normalization of immune cell ratios, and reduced mortality in elderly and immunocompromised populations. Thymalin is best described as an immune bioregulator, influencing immune balance rather than acting as a stimulant, and has been investigated in contexts including aging, post-radiation recovery, chronic infection, cancer adjunct care, and inflammatory immune dysregulation.

All research peptides offered are manufactured using a lyophilization (freeze-drying) process,
which is designed to enhance stability during storage and transport. When stored appropriately,
lyophilized materials are generally stable at room temperature for extended periods prior to reconstitution.

Lyophilized (Unreconstituted) Material

  • Store vials away from heat, moisture, and direct light.
  • For short-term storage, refrigeration at approximately 4°C (39°F) is suitable.
  • For long-term storage (months to years), vials may be stored in a freezer at approximately −80°C (−112°F).
  • Freezing is the preferred method for preserving stability over extended storage durations.

Reconstituted Material

  • Once reconstituted using appropriate laboratory-grade solvents, materials should be stored refrigerated.
  • Under refrigerated conditions, reconstituted material is commonly considered stable for up to 30 days,
    depending on solvent choice, concentration, handling, and experimental conditions.
  • Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles, as these may impact material integrity.

About Lyophilization

Lyophilization is a dehydration process in which compounds are frozen and exposed to reduced pressure,
allowing ice to sublimate directly from solid to vapor. This process results in a dry, crystalline structure
that enhances stability prior to reconstitution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Essential information about our research-grade peptides and quality standards.

What are research peptides?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, typically consisting of 2-50 amino acids. They serve as the building blocks of proteins and play crucial roles in biological processes.

Research peptides are synthesized versions of naturally occurring peptides, manufactured to precise specifications for use in scientific studies.

Key characteristics: High purity (≥99%), lyophilized form for stability, accompanied by Certificates of Analysis (COA), and manufactured under strict quality control protocols.

Peptide purity refers to the percentage of the target peptide present in a sample, measured via High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).

Our Standard: All our research peptides maintain ≥99% purity, verified by third-party laboratory testing and documented in our Certificates of Analysis.

Higher purity is critical for research because impurities can interfere with experimental results and compromise the reproducibility of studies.

We maintain rigorous quality control through a multi-step verification process:

  • HPLC Analysis: Every batch tested to verify ≥99% purity
  • Mass Spectrometry: Molecular weight confirmation for peptide identity
  • Third-Party Testing: Independent laboratory verification
  • Sterility Protocols: Aseptic handling and packaging procedures
  • Batch Documentation: Complete traceability from synthesis to delivery
