SS-31
$79.99–$149.99Price range: $79.99 through $149.99
SS-31 is a high-purity mitochondria-targeting research peptide available in 10mg and 50mg strengths. Widely studied for mitochondrial biology, cellular bioenergetics, oxidative stress, ATP production, and experimental peptide research. Third-party tested, COA verified, and intended strictly for laboratory research purposes.
SS-31 is a synthetic tetrapeptide studied for its interactions with mitochondrial membranes, cellular energy processes, and oxidative stress pathways. Supplied for qualified in-vitro and ex-vivo research only.
Mitochondrial Research
Studied for its interactions with mitochondrial membranes and mitochondrial function.
Cellular Energy Pathways
Investigated in research involving cellular bioenergetics and energy production pathways.
Oxidative Stress Research
Studied in experimental models examining oxidative stress and mitochondrial processes.
Cellular Function
Used in research exploring mitochondrial activity and broader cellular function.
What makes SS-31 unusual
Most compounds in this catalogue engage a protein receptor. SS-31 does not: it associates with cardiolipin, a structural phospholipid found in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Targeting a lipid rather than a receptor is a genuinely different pharmacological approach.
It is also notable for how it reaches that membrane. Uptake does not depend on membrane potential, which is the inverse of how TPP-conjugated mitochondrial agents work — those rely on charge to accumulate. A compound that does not need the potential to get there behaves differently in exactly the conditions where the potential is compromised.
Handling and reconstitution
Standard lyophilised peptide handling applies. Keep the sealed vial cold and dark until it is used. Reconstitute by running bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial rather than firing it onto the powder cake, and let it dissolve without shaking — swirl gently if it needs help.
The concentration you end up with is set by how much water you add, not by the vial size. Our reconstitution calculator turns vial mass and water volume into a concentration and a syringe reading.
Storage
Sealed and lyophilised: refrigerated, protected from light. In solution: refrigerated, and treat time at room temperature as a cost. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw once reconstituted.
What ships, and what is on the certificate
The vial ships sealed as it was filled. Every compound in the catalogue is tested by an outside laboratory — Vanguard Laboratory in Olympia, Washington — and the certificate is published in full rather than summarised.
The certificate reports chromatographic purity by HPLC with the chromatogram visible, the measured quantity in milligrams, and an endotoxin result by LAL. Measured quantity usually reads slightly above the label, which is normal: fills are targeted high so every vial meets its stated content.
Frequently asked questions
What does SS-31 bind?
Cardiolipin, a structural phospholipid of the inner mitochondrial membrane, rather than a protein receptor.
How is it different from TPP-conjugated compounds?
TPP conjugates accumulate by charge and therefore depend on membrane potential. SS-31 uptake does not, which matters most in the conditions where that potential is compromised.
How should it be reconstituted?
Add bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial, then let it dissolve without shaking. The reconstitution calculator will convert vial mass and water volume into a concentration and a syringe reading.
Does it come with a certificate of analysis?
Yes. Every compound is tested by an independent laboratory and the full certificate, chromatogram included, is published on the site rather than summarised.
Is this a medicine?
No. It is sold for in-vitro laboratory research use only. It is not a drug, supplement or cosmetic, and is not for human or veterinary use.
