Epithalon: A Research Peptide Overview
Share
Epithalon is a short synthetic peptide that features prominently in telomere and longevity research. This overview covers what it is, the pathways it's studied in, and how to source research-grade material.
What is Epithalon?
Epithalon (also spelled Epitalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide — four amino acids — modeled on a peptide associated with the pineal gland. Its small, stable structure makes it well-suited to controlled laboratory research.
Research pathways
- Telomerase and telomere-length research.
- Pineal-gland and circadian research models.
- Longevity and cellular-aging research.
Formats & doses
Epithalon is supplied in lyophilized and pre-reconstituted activated forms: Epithalon (50mg). It sits alongside other longevity compounds such as NAD+ and MOTS-c in the Anti-Aging & Longevity collection.
Handling, reconstitution & purity
Reconstitute lyophilized Epithalon with bacteriostatic water per our reconstitution guide. All material is ≥98% HPLC-verified, documented on the Quality & COA page. For more longevity research compounds, see our NAD+ overview.
Manufacturing & Quality
Alpha Biologix manufactures Epithalon under pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing standards, with every batch verified to ≥98% HPLC purity and independently tested by third-party laboratories. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is available per batch for researchers who need documented traceability.
