MOTS-c 40mg

MOTS-c 40mg is a research-grade mitochondrial-derived peptide supplied for laboratory study of metabolic regulation and cellular energy homeostasis. Every batch is HPLC-tested and ships with a batch-specific third-party Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirming identity and 99%+ purity. For laboratory and research use only. Not for human consumption. This product is not a drug, supplement, food, or cosmetic and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Research Applications

MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) increasingly studied in metabolic and exercise-physiology research. In-vitro and preclinical models examine its role in AMPK signaling, glucose and insulin regulation, metabolic-stress adaptation, and mitochondrial function. It is a frequent subject in research on exercise-mimetic and metabolic-resilience pathways.

Purity & Verification

Every lot is analyzed by reversed-phase HPLC and, where applicable, mass spectrometry to confirm compound identity and 99%+ purity. A batch-specific, third-party Certificate of Analysis (COA) is included in the product gallery so researchers can confirm purity and identity before use. Supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder; store sealed, cool, dry, and protected from light, and reconstitute per standard laboratory handling. Fast, tracked shipping from within the United States.
