Epitalon (also named Epithalon, CAS No. 307297-39-8) is a laboratory-synthesized tetrapeptide consisting of the amino acid sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. Its simple yet well-defined structure makes it a commonly used compound in peptide research, particularly in studies related to cellular aging and skin biology.
This product is supplied in the form of a white lyophilized powder with a purity of no less than 99%, confirmed by HPLC analysis. It is manufactured under controlled production systems in compliance with GMP and ISO 9001 standards, ensuring stable and consistent quality across batches.
Epitalon is known for its ease of handling in laboratory environments. After reconstitution, it forms a clear solution, allowing precise preparation for experimental use. These characteristics make it suitable for research scenarios where consistency and repeatability are important.
One of the main strengths of this product is its high purity level. With ≥99% purity, it minimizes the presence of impurities that could interfere with experimental outcomes, supporting more reliable research data.
The lyophilized powder format enhances product stability and simplifies storage. When kept under recommended conditions, the peptide maintains its chemical integrity over time, making it suitable for extended research cycles.
In addition, Epitalon offers good solubility, allowing researchers to prepare solutions with accurate concentrations. This is particularly useful in experiments requiring controlled dosing and reproducibility.
The packaging design also contributes to product usability. Each kit contains multiple individually sealed vials, reducing contamination risk and enabling flexible usage in different experimental setups.
Epitalon is frequently used in research focused on skin aging mechanisms. It is commonly included in studies examining how peptides interact with cellular processes related to oxidative stress and repair, both of which influence skin condition.
In the field of peptide-based skin research, Epitalon is also explored for its connection to collagen-related pathways. These studies aim to better understand how peptide compounds may be associated with structural aspects of the skin such as firmness and elasticity.
Another application involves environmental simulation models. Researchers use Epitalon in controlled conditions to observe how skin cells respond to factors like UV exposure, dryness, and oxidative challenges.
Furthermore, Epitalon is relevant in studies investigating cellular lifespan, especially those related to telomerase activity. This makes it a useful compound in research exploring long-term changes associated with skin aging.
