Frequently asked questions
What exactly is Kisspeptin?
Kisspeptin is supplied as a defined chemical entity: molecular formula C63H83N17O14, average molecular weight 1302.4 g/mol, CAS registry number 374675-21-5. Those three values are what identify the material unambiguously — a supplier that cannot state them is not describing a characterised compound. Each batch is accompanied by a certificate of analysis carrying the same identifiers.
How is the purity of Kisspeptin verified?
Purity is determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry. The stated figure for this item is 99.0%. Verification is per batch rather than per product line, which is why the lot number on the vial and the lot number on the certificate of analysis have to match — a certificate that is not batch-specific documents nothing about the vial in front of you.
Is Kisspeptin available from a pharmacy, and what is the pharmacy price?
It is not, and there is none. Kisspeptin is not an authorised medicinal product in the EU, the UK or the US, so no pharmacy dispenses it and no pharmacy price exists for it. It is supplied here strictly as a laboratory reference material for in-vitro research, not for human or veterinary use, and no prescription is issued or implied.
How should Kisspeptin be stored?
Store as received: Refrigerate 2–8 °C. Lyophilised material is stable far longer than material in solution, so it is kept sealed and dry until it is prepared for laboratory work; the recommended diluent for this item is Sterile water. Protect from light and from repeated temperature cycling, and record the date the vial was opened.
Do you ship Kisspeptin within Europe?
Yes. Orders are dispatched from within Europe with tracked delivery and plain, unbranded outer packaging, which is what keeps transit times short for EU destinations. Material is labelled for laboratory research use. Delivery windows and destinations are listed on the shipping page.

What it is
Hypothalamic neuropeptide that gates GnRH release; studied in reproductive-axis research.
Reconstitution
Kisspeptin is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Reconstitute it before research use. Recommended diluent: bacteriostatic water.
Bring the vial and diluent to room temperature.
Draw the diluent with a sterile syringe and add it slowly down the inner wall of the vial.
Swirl gently until fully dissolved — never shake.
Let it stand until completely clear, then refrigerate.
Example: 2 ml of diluent in this 10 mg vial gives 5,000 mcg/ml.
Storage & handling
Refrigerate 2–8 °C. Keep lyophilized vials frozen and out of light. Once reconstituted, refrigerate (2–8 °C) and use within a few weeks. Always use sterile technique.
