About
A potent immune-support blend combining the master immune modulator Thymosin Alpha-1, the targeted anti-inflammatory KPV, and the antimicrobial peptide LL-37.
Mechanism of Action
This blend provides a multi-layered immune defense. TA-1 enhances T-cell function for adaptive immunity. LL-37 provides a direct antimicrobial and anti-biofilm defense. KPV offers powerful, targeted anti-inflammatory action to control excessive inflammation often associated with immune responses.
Key Benefits
- Comprehensive immune system support
- Direct antimicrobial and antiviral properties
- Powerful anti-inflammatory action
- Modulates both innate and adaptive immunity
Clinical Research
This blend combines three peptides with well-documented roles in immunity and inflammation, creating a powerful tool for research into complex immune challenges, chronic infections, and inflammatory conditions.
Potential Side Effects
All components are generally well-tolerated. LL-37 can cause localized inflammation at the injection site as part of its mechanism of action.
Usage & Dosage
Administered via subcutaneous injection. Dosing would depend on the specific immune-related research protocol.
Peptide Storage
Best Practices For Storing Peptides
To preserve the integrity of laboratory results, proper storage of peptides is essential. Correct storage practices can maintain peptides for years and guard against contamination, oxidation, and degradation. If the peptides will be used immediately, short-term refrigeration under 4°C (39°F) is generally acceptable. Lyophilized peptides are usually stable at room temperatures for several weeks.
For longer-term storage (several months to years), it is preferable to store peptides in a freezer at -80°C (-112°F). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles and do not use frost-free freezers, as temperatures can fluctuate widely.
Preventing Contamination
To prevent moisture contamination, allow the peptide to come to room temperature before opening its container. Minimize exposure to air; after use, reseal the container under an atmosphere of dry, inert gas (like nitrogen or argon) if possible. Peptides with Cys, Met, or Trp are especially prone to air oxidation.
Storing Peptides In Solution
The shelf life of peptide solutions is far less than that of lyophilized peptides. If peptides must be stored in solution, use sterile buffers at pH 5-6 and separate into aliquots to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Peptide solutions are generally stable for up to 30 days when refrigerated at 4°C (39°F).
