SS-31 10mg

SS-31 (elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide for in-vitro studies of cardiolipin interactions, bioenergetics, and redox balance.

SS-31 (Elamipretide)

This aromatic–cationic tetrapeptide associates with inner-mitochondrial-membrane lipids (notably cardiolipin). Consequently, researchers employ it to explore electron-transport organisation, bioenergetics, and redox pathways in model systems.
For laboratory research only. Not for human use.

Handling & storage

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

About SS-31 in research

The alternating aromatic–cationic motif supports membrane association in model systems. Researchers use SS-31 to examine interactions with cardiolipin-rich domains, assess effects on respiratory-chain organisation, and probe consequences for mitochondrial reactive-species handling and ATP-linked metabolism—exclusively in controlled, non-clinical in-vitro contexts.

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.
