About MOTS-c

MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in metabolic research. Supplied as a lyophilized powder for laboratory investigations into mitochondrial function, metabolic signaling pathways, and cellular stress-response mechanisms in controlled experimental models. Each batch undergoes analytical verification for identity and purity using HPLC and mass spectrometry. Supplied as: Lyophilized powder Purity: >95-99 (HPLC verified) Storage: Store desiccated at ?20�C for long-term. Short-term room temperature exposure (around 1 month) during shipping/handling is generally acceptable if kept sealed, dry, and protected from heat/light. Designation: FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for human or animal consumption.
