Telomerase reports
Cell-culture studies report effects on telomerase activity — the central and most-cited claim in this literature.
These are results measured on this lot. Full material specification is in Know your compound.

Know your compound
Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed from work on peptide extracts of the pineal gland. Like Pinealon, it belongs to the short peptide bioregulator class associated with the Khavinson group.
The published interest centres on reports of telomerase activity in cell culture — an unusual claim for a molecule of only four residues, and one that has attracted attention precisely because short peptides are not typical regulators of that enzyme. This literature is concentrated in a small number of institutions and is not widely replicated outside them, which is relevant context when evaluating it.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only, with a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis.
Read left to right from the N-terminus. Mass spectrometry checks each lot against this sequence — that result is the “Identity” line on the certificate.

What the literature examines
Summaries of what published research has investigated. Preclinical unless stated otherwise — not claims about this product.
Cell-culture studies report effects on telomerase activity — the central and most-cited claim in this literature.
Belongs to the same tri- and tetrapeptide class as Pinealon, studied for direct nucleic-acid interaction.
Published work originates largely from a small number of groups; independent replication is limited.
Certificate of Analysis
Not a brand-wide spec sheet — a lot-specific certificate from an independent laboratory, published before the lot ships and searchable by lot number forever.

Questions
No. Epithalon is not an FDA-approved drug and is not approved for human or veterinary use. It is supplied exclusively as a research material for laboratory use, and it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Yes. Every lot is assayed by an independent U.S. laboratory for purity and identity, and the certificate for the lot you receive is published in our COA library — you can read it before you order.
Purity is quantified by reverse-phase HPLC against a reference standard, and identity is confirmed by mass spectrometry. Both results appear on the lot certificate.
Lyophilized material is typically stored cold and protected from light. Handling and storage are the responsibility of the receiving laboratory; refer to the lot documentation for specifics.
Every second vial is free, sitewide and automatically. Add two vials and you pay for one; add six and you pay for three. Compounds can be mixed, there is no code, and there is no limit.
Orders are processed promptly and shipped with tracking. Free US shipping applies over $100; Priority shipping is $8.95 otherwise.
The guarantee
Have any lot independently re-tested. If the results don't match the purity printed on its published certificate, we refund the order in full — no returns, no argument.
