Analysts reviewing the HPLC chromatogram for the current batch
FIG. 201Analytical Lab

Identity, purity and main-peak area are checked by reversed-phase HPLC against an in-house reference standard for this sequence. The chromatogram you see on the certificate of analysis is generated at this exact bench, by the analysts who release the batch.

When a sequence moves from milligram research lots to multi-gram research supply, the same chemistry is transferred onto jacketed stainless reactors. Temperature, agitation and reagent equivalents are logged in real time so that the larger batch matches the analytical fingerprint of the small one.

01

Overview

Selank is a synthetic analog of the natural tuftsin peptide, a heptapeptide with a C-terminal stabilizing modification.

02

Pharmacology and mechanism

Modulates GABAergic, monoaminergic and neurotrophic factor expression, affecting brain regions linked to stress and cognition.
