About Semax

Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide comprising the ACTH(4-7) fragment extended with Pro-Gly-Pro, supplied as a lyophilised research compound. The C-terminal extension confers substantial resistance to peptidase cleavage, making this ACTH analogue a stable reagent for in-vitro studies of neuropeptide signalling and structure-activity relationships.

Why researchers choose Avanti Peptides Semax: The N-terminal methionine is oxidation-sensitive — this material is lyophilised and sealed under controlled conditions, with identity and purity confirmed at release.

Key features of Semax

  • ACTH(4-10)-derived heptapeptide (7-amino-acid)
  • Sequence: Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro (7 amino acids)
  • Lyophilised solid — stable, easy to store, straightforward to reconstitute
  • Unit size: 10 mg / vial
  • Every batch released only after identity, purity, and appearance QC
  • Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and batch documentation available on request

Reconstituting and storing Semax

  1. Before reconstitution: Store lyophilised vials at 2–8 °C, protected from light and moisture.
  2. Equilibrate: Allow vial and diluent to reach room temperature before opening.
  3. Reconstitute: Add Bacteriostatic Water (10 ml recommended). Swirl gently — do not vortex.
  4. After reconstitution: Store at 2–8 °C. Prepare aliquots to minimise freeze–thaw cycles.
  5. Compatibility: Use only within protocols that comply with your institution’s SOPs and local regulations.

Semax in research

Researchers use Semax in model systems to examine peptide-mediated signalling relevant to neuronal pathways, profile neurotrophic-factor expression readouts, and compare structure-activity relationships against native ACTH fragments. Sharing its Pro-Gly-Pro motif with Selank, this ACTH analogue is often studied in parallel to isolate the contribution of the stabilising extension.

Synthesis and quality assurance

Avanti Peptides manufactures Semax via controlled, validated solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) to deliver high purity and lot-to-lot consistency. Each batch undergoes identity verification, HPLC purity analysis (≥99%), and appearance inspection before release.

Frequently asked questions about Semax

What is Semax?
Semax is a 7-amino-acid peptide (sequence: Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro). It is used exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research. See the product overview above for full context.
How should I store the peptide?
Store lyophilised vials at 2–8 °C, away from light and moisture. After reconstitution, keep at 2–8 °C and use aliquots to minimise freeze–thaw cycles.
What diluent should I use for reconstitution?
Most laboratories use Bacteriostatic Water (10 ml). Always follow your lab’s standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the specific assay.
Do you provide batch documentation / Certificate of Analysis?
Yes. Batch documentation including test results (CoA) is available on request. If it is not attached to your order confirmation, contact our support team and we will add it immediately.
Is this product intended for human use?
No. This material is strictly for laboratory research only and is not intended for human consumption, clinical application, or veterinary use.
