SEMAX – Research-Grade Peptide

SEMAX is a research-grade synthetic peptide supplied by PerformanceLabs.UK for laboratory and educational research applications.

Overview

SEMAX is a heptapeptide derived from the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) fragment ACTH(4-10), modified with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro sequence. Originally developed for neuroscience research, SEMAX is utilised in controlled laboratory settings to investigate cellular signalling pathways, gene expression mechanisms, and molecular interactions within neural and non-neural tissue models.

This peptide is of particular interest in research contexts exploring neuroplasticity, cognitive signalling cascades, neuroprotective pathways, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) modulation. SEMAX is supplied in lyophilised form to ensure stability, purity, and suitability for in vitro and ex vivo experimental protocols.

Key Research Features

• High-purity synthetic heptapeptide for reproducible experimental outcomes
• Lyophilised formulation for enhanced stability and extended shelf life under proper storage conditions
• Suitable for in vitro cellular assays, gene expression studies, and molecular neuroscience research
• Supplied with third-party Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirming purity, composition, and batch traceability
• Designed for use in controlled laboratory environments by qualified researchers and academic institutions
• Compatible with standard reconstitution protocols using bacteriostatic water or appropriate sterile buffer systems
• Applicable to research investigating neurotrophic signalling, synaptic plasticity models, and cellular stress response pathways

Storage & Handling

Store lyophilised peptide at -20°C in a dry, dark environment, protected from light, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Once reconstituted, aliquot into single-use vials and store at -20°C or -80°C to minimise degradation and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Handle using aseptic technique in a sterile laboratory environment. Refer to the product-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) for batch details, purity specifications, and handling recommendations.
