Description
Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala–Glu–Asp–Gly; AEDG) used in controlled in-vitro research to explore telomere biology pathways, cellular senescence markers, and circadian-related peptide signalling under non-clinical conditions.
Epitalon — 10 mg
This short peptide’s compact sequence makes it useful for model-system studies of nucleic-acid and chromatin-associated pathways, as well as peptide–receptor signalling in cell culture. All investigations are performed in laboratory settings only.
For laboratory research only. Not for human use.

Handling & storage
- Storage (dry): Keep vials protected from light and moisture.
- Reconstitution: Bring vial and diluent to room temperature. Reconstitute with
Bacteriostatic Water 10 ml. Swirl gently—do not vortex. - After reconstitution: Store at 2–8 °C, protect from light, use aliquots to reduce handling, and avoid repeated temperature cycling.
- Compatibility: Use only within research protocols that follow your lab’s SOPs and local regulations.

About Epitalon in research
Researchers examine Epitalon in cell models to interrogate telomere-associated pathways, chromatin-level responses, and peptide signalling under strictly non-clinical conditions. These studies focus on molecular mechanisms and assay readouts, not therapeutic use.
Synthesis & quality
Manufactured via controlled, validated peptide-synthesis processes to deliver high purity and lot-to-lot consistency. Each batch undergoes identity, purity, and appearance checks before release.
Certificates of Analysis (CoA) are available on request.
Legal & safety
