KPV 10mg

Description

KPV (Lys–Pro–Val) is a tripeptide fragment related to the α-MSH peptide family, used in controlled in-vitro studies of peptide pharmacology, receptor-adjacent signalling, and structure–activity relationships under non-clinical laboratory conditions.

About KPV in research

Researchers use KPV to explore peptide-fragment behaviour in model systems, assess receptor-adjacent signalling, and compare structure–activity relationships alongside other melanocortin-related peptides—exclusively in controlled, non-clinical in-vitro environments.

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.
