Synthetic AEDG tetrapeptide

Epithalon

Telomere

Epithalon, also called Epitalon, is the tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. Claims involving telomerase, melatonin rhythm and longevity rely mainly on cell work, animal models and a limited number of difficult-to-verify older studies.

01 · Overview

What is Epithalon?

Epithalon, also called Epitalon, is the tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. Claims involving telomerase, melatonin rhythm and longevity rely mainly on cell work, animal models and a limited number of difficult-to-verify older studies.

Research route, formulation and population determine what a result actually means.

01

Telomere

In-vitro research examines telomerase, telomere length and cellular ageing.

In vitro
Preclinical

Telomerase and telomeres

Recent cell studies found dose-related changes in hTERT and telomere length; a cell-culture finding does not predict rejuvenation in humans.

How to reconstitute Epithalon for laboratory research

A visual workflow for controlled laboratory reconstitution. Always follow the product label, COA and a validated protocol.

Five visual laboratory reconstitution steps: clean, measure diluent, add slowly, swirl gently and store according to protocol.
1

Clean

Disinfect the rubber closures of both vials and allow them to dry.

2

Measure diluent

Withdraw only the diluent validated for the specific compound.

3

Add slowly

Let the liquid run slowly down the inside wall of the vial.

4

Swirl gently

Do not shake; rotate gently until the material has dissolved.

5

Store per protocol

Follow the product label, COA and validated stability data.

Important checks before and after reconstitution

Check the product

First confirm that the product is a lyophilised vial. Prefilled pens and ready-to-use solutions do not require reconstitution. Check the label, COA and specified diluent.

Use clean, sterile technique

Wash your hands, clean the work surface and use new sterile equipment for every procedure. Clean both rubber closures with separate alcohol swabs and let them dry completely.

Concentration, not total amount

The volume of liquid added changes the concentration in mg per mL, but not the total amount of research compound in the vial. Use the calculator to check this in advance.

Inspect and label

Check for unexpected discoloration, cloudiness or visible particles. Record the compound, concentration and reconstitution date. Storage time and temperature are product-specific; a fixed 28-day rule does not apply to every compound.

General reconstitution volumes listed by the source

General examples, not a product-specific protocol. The chosen volume determines concentration; always check the label, COA and calculator.

05 · Safety and limitations

Safety and limitations

Research route, formulation and population determine what a result actually means.

What is known

  • Visible research claims use primary or official sources.
  • The calculator is arithmetic and does not turn a study amount into medical advice.
  • A registered medicine and a research vial are not automatically equivalent.

What remains uncertain

  • Many products lack long-term safety data and independent replication.
  • Animal and cell findings do not predict a safe human dose.
  • Stability depends on formulation, pH, sterility, light, temperature and packaging.
