Questions, answered
What is Semax?
Semax (Semax (ACTH(4-10) analog)) is a research peptide studied in research on neurotrophic research and neuroprotection models. It is supplied strictly as a research material.
How is Semax classified?
It is a research peptide, also known as Semax, ACTH(4-10) analog, and MEHFPGP.
How should Semax be stored?
The documented condition is −20°C, desiccated, light-protected. Keep it cold, dry, desiccated, and light-protected; reconstituted material is refrigerated and shorter-lived.
How is Semax reconstituted?
By dissolving the 30 mg vial in bacteriostatic water. The concentration is set by mass ÷ solvent volume. For example, 30 mg in 1 mL gives 30 mg/mL. This is laboratory preparation math, not a dose.
How is the quality of Semax verified?
It is documented at ≥99% (HPLC + LC-MS verified) and third-party tested, with identity by LC-MS and purity by HPLC. A certificate of analysis is available for the batch.
Is Semax for human use?
No. For research use only. Not for human consumption, diagnostic, or therapeutic use. It is not for human or animal consumption and carries no medical, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.
How does Semax compare to NAD+?
They are distinct research compounds with different reported targets: Semax with BDNF / TrkB signaling, NAD+ with sirtuin (SIRT) activity. See the Semax vs NAD+ comparison for a neutral breakdown. Neither is presented as "better."
