EPITALON 10MG

El Toro Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) supplied exclusively for laboratory and in-vitro research. It is a short peptide analogue of the naturally occurring epithalamin polypeptide complex first isolated from the pineal gland and is used in molecular biology studies exploring telomerase activity, protein synthesis regulation, and peptide stability.

Each vial contains 10 mg of lyophilised Epitalon, produced under ISO-certified clean-room conditions to maintain accuracy, sterility, and reproducibility across laboratory studies.

Chemical Background / Research Profile

The chemical formula of Epitalon is C₁₄H₂₂N₄O₉, with a molecular weight of approximately 390.35 g/mol. It is composed of four amino acids arranged in a highly conserved sequence that interacts with cell regulatory systems in experimental models.

In research settings, Epitalon is studied to:

• Examine telomerase expression in cultured cells.

• Investigate peptide-mediated signalling and transcription regulation.

• Assess peptide degradation resistance and oxidative-stress responses in vitro.

Due to its short chain length and solubility, Epitalon is ideal for cell-culture work and enzymatic assays aimed at understanding peptide stability, repair mechanisms, and intracellular communication under controlled laboratory conditions.

Purity and Quality Assurance

All El Toro peptides are manufactured to ≥ 98 % purity, confirmed by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Mass Spectrometry (MS).

Each batch is produced in ISO-accredited laboratories following Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) protocols.

Vials are sterile-sealed, labelled with full batch traceability, and accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming structure, purity, and expiry date.

Laboratory Handling and Storage

• Store at 2–8 °C, away from direct light and moisture.

• For long-term preservation, keep frozen at –20 °C.

• Allow the vial to reach ambient temperature before opening to prevent condensation.

• Reconstitute using sterile bacteriostatic water or other laboratory-grade solvent under aseptic conditions.

• Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles and discard any unused material in accordance with institutional waste procedures.

Researchers must use standard PPE – gloves, coat, and eye protection – and handle all peptide materials within authorised laboratory environments.

Safety, Compliance and Restrictions

Epitalon is not a medicinal product and not approved for human or veterinary consumption. It must never be used for diagnostic, therapeutic, or cosmetic purposes.
El Toro supplies this compound strictly for scientific and in-vitro research.

All handling must comply with MHRA, REACH, and COSHH laboratory safety regulations.

By maintaining rigorous analytical standards, sterile packaging, and transparent documentation, El Toro ensures that Epitalon 10 mg meets the precise requirements of professional researchers conducting peptide-related studies in regulated environments.
