SS-31 50mg

SS-31 50mg is a research-grade Szeto-Schiller mitochondria-targeting peptide (elamipretide) supplied for laboratory study of cardiolipin and mitochondrial bioenergetics. 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

SS-31 (also known as elamipretide) is a cell-permeable, cardiolipin-binding tetrapeptide central to mitochondrial research. In-vitro and preclinical models study its interaction with inner-membrane cardiolipin, electron-transport efficiency, reactive-oxygen-species reduction, and mitochondrial-membrane stabilization. The 50mg vial supports extended bioenergetics research.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SS-31 studied for?
Cardiolipin binding, mitochondrial-membrane stabilization, and reactive-oxygen-species research in laboratory models.

Is SS-31 the same as elamipretide?
Yes; SS-31 (Szeto-Schiller 31) and elamipretide refer to the same mitochondria-targeting peptide.

What purity grade is offered?
HPLC-verified to 99%+ purity with a batch-specific third-party COA.

Is this for human use?
No. It is a research chemical for laboratory use only.

What documentation comes with each order?
Each order includes a batch-specific third-party Certificate of Analysis confirming HPLC purity and identity.

Is this the same compound referenced in the published research literature?
Yes. SS-31 (elamipretide) is the same cardiolipin-binding tetrapeptide studied in the peer-reviewed literature cited above.
