Why does the vial look empty?

That’s normal. The peptide is supplied lyophilised (freeze-dried) — often a thin film or a few milligrams at the base of the vial, easy to mistake for empty. It’s all there; reconstitute with bacteriostatic water before use.

Research handling note

Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water and store the lyophilised vial at −20 °C until use; once reconstituted, refrigerate and use within the documented window.

SS-31 — research profile

For research purposes only — not for human consumption

SS-31 (also known as elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide from the Szeto-Schiller peptide family. It concentrates on the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it binds the phospholipid cardiolipin — a molecule essential to the organisation of the electron-transport chain.

Research reports that by stabilising cardiolipin, SS-31 helps preserve the efficiency of the electron-transport chain, supports ATP production and reduces excess reactive-oxygen-species output — the focus of interest in mitochondrial-dysfunction and cellular-aging models.

How it’s studied

Cardiolipin binding: stabilisation of inner-membrane structure.
Bioenergetics: electron-transport-chain efficiency and ATP output.
Oxidative stress: reduction of excess reactive-oxygen species.
Mitochondrial dysfunction: disease and aging models.

Areas under investigation

Area	Reported research focus
Mitochondrial function	Cardiolipin stabilisation and ATP production.
Cellular aging	Oxidative-stress and bioenergetic-decline models.
Organ protection	Cardiac, renal and neural mitochondrial models.

Verifiability

Batch Testing & COA

Every production batch is sent for independent, third-party analysis at Janoshik Analytical. When results return, the full Certificate of Analysis for the exact batch you receive is published here and in our COA library, carrying its SHA-256 checksum and the lot number printed on your vial, so you can confirm the document is genuine and untampered. We publish every certificate, including any that fail.
