Introduction
GH-releasing peptides (GHRPs) are synthetic peptides that like GHRH act directly on pituitary somatotrophs to stimulate GH release. GHRP-2, an investigational drug, is one of the most potent members of the GHRP family. It has been shown to be effective in *****s via the oral and intranasal as well as the iv route of administration.
Description
Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2 Synthetic is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 6 amino acids, having a molecular mass of 817.9 Dalton and a Molecular formula of C45H55N9O6.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
The GHRP-2 hormone was lyophilized with no additives.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized GHRP-2 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability
Lyophilized Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution GHRP-2 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 99.0% as determined by analysis by RP-HPLC.
Amino acid sequence
H-D-Ala-D-2-Nal-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2.
