Pentapeptide amide Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH2, a ghrelin-receptor agonist
Research topic: Body & metabolism · group: GH-axis peptides
Ipamorelin is a pentapeptide amide, Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH2, in which two residues are non-natural: 2-aminoisobutyric acid at the N-terminus and D-2-naphthylalanine. It is a growth-hormone secretagogue that acts at the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a), unlike the GHRH analogues beside it in the GH-axis group of our body-composition and metabolic page, and it appears in two blends there, with tesamorelin and with CJC-1295. The studies in our product data cover its original pharmacology in rat pituitary cells, rats and pigs; pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modelling in healthy volunteers; a rat model of postoperative ileus; and a randomised trial after bowel resection. The fact table refers to the free base.
Besides the vials, Ipamorelin is bottled as a nasal spray, held in stock in the United States and shipped from there.

What to put in your quote request
With these facts the first reply can carry the unit price per kit, shipping and lead time.
No. Ipamorelin acetate is the peptide with acetate as its counter-ion, a salt. N-acetyl ipamorelin has an acetyl group bonded to the peptide and is a different substance with its own formula. The fact table refers to the free base.
Because two of the five residues, Aib and D-2-naphthylalanine, have no one-letter code. The structure is written out in full in the description above.
One kit is 10 vials of the same product at the same strength. Each vial holds the stated amount, for example 10 mg of lyophilized peptide; the few solutions are stated per vial in mg or ml. 1 kit per product and strength. One order can combine several products and strengths, each from 1 kit.
HPLC purity, MS identity, endotoxin and fill, on the COA of every lot of a stocked peptide. The COA carries the lot number, so you can match it to the vials you receive. Yes. Ask for the COA of the batch you are quoted; the batch number on that COA is the batch we ship.
In writing, per request. Prices are tiered by the number of kits of each peptide and strength; the quotation gives the unit price per kit, the shipping cost and the lead time. We reply within 24 hours.
Because listings describe different forms: a free peptide or a salt (acetate, TFA), a copper complex or its free peptide, one peptide or a two-peptide material — and some registries keep older numbers. Each product page says which form its values refer to; the COA of the lot is the reference. For Ipamorelin: Ipamorelin acetate has its own CAS (1258196-85-8); N-acetyl ipamorelin is a different substance.
