Description
Epithalon 10mg from Polaris Peptides is a lyophilised research peptide with over 99% purity confirmed by HPLC-MS. Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (also known as Epitalon, AEDG peptide), supplied vacuum-sealed and sold strictly for laboratory research.
At $35.00 this vial works out to $3.50 per milligram. It is the smallest size we stock, which makes it a good fit for pilot experiments, method development or a first look at the compound.
What Is Epithalon 10mg?
Epithalon (also spelled epitalon) is the four-amino-acid peptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly. It was developed as a synthetic version of epithalamin, an extract from the pineal gland, by researchers in St. Petersburg.
It is best known in ageing research for reports that it activates telomerase, the enzyme that maintains telomeres at the ends of chromosomes. Studies have also looked at its influence on melatonin and circadian rhythm, linking back to its pineal origins.

Epithalon Research Areas
Published studies on Epithalon cover several areas. The list below summarises the main ones so you can see where it fits your work.
- Telomerase activity: telomere length in cultured human cells.
- Pineal function: melatonin secretion and circadian rhythm.
- Ageing models: lifespan and age-related markers in animals.
- Antioxidant activity: oxidative stress markers.
Storing and Handling Epithalon 10mg
Store unopened vials at −20 °C, where the dry powder stays stable for long periods. Before reconstitution, let the vial reach room temperature to stop condensation forming inside. Add bacteriostatic water or another lab-grade solvent slowly down the side of the vial and swirl gently rather than shaking. Once reconstituted, keep it at 2–8 °C and complete your work within 28 days.
Why Order Epithalon From Polaris Peptides
Every batch of Epithalon we sell is checked by HPLC-MS for identity and purity before it is listed. Vials are vacuum-sealed to keep moisture out and labelled with the exact amount. If you are comparing suppliers, ask for the batch analysis and check it against the label. That is the standard we hold ourselves to.
How Epithalon 10mg Is Tested
We use two methods together. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separates the contents of a sample so we can see how much of it is the target compound and how much is anything else, such as truncated sequences or leftover synthesis reagents. Mass spectrometry (MS) then weighs the molecules, which confirms that the main peak really is Epithalon and not a look-alike. A result above 99% on both counts is what earns a batch a place in our catalogue. Lots that fall short are not sold.
