Description
BPC-157, short for Body Protection Compound 157, is a synthetic 15-amino-acid fragment originally isolated from a protective protein found in human gastric juice. Chemists assemble it through standard solid-phase peptide synthesis, lyophilise it, and seal it under inert atmosphere. What ends up in the vial is a fine white powder with the sequence Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val and a molecular weight near 1419.5 g/mol.
What the literature actually covers
If you scan published research on BPC-157, most of it sits in three buckets: tendon and ligament repair models, gastrointestinal mucosa studies, and angiogenesis work involving VEGF expression. There is also a body of rodent work on vascular function and a smaller set of papers looking at neuroprotective endpoints. That is why labs request it. It is not a one-target compound, and the in vitro and in vivo data span a wide range of injury and recovery models, which is precisely what makes it interesting as a reference peptide for comparative studies.
How we source it
Every vial of BPC-157 we list comes from either a UK or EU contract peptide manufacturer we have audited. We deliberately do not stock material from unverified Chinese suppliers, because the failure mode there is not just low purity, it is misidentified sequence and inconsistent counter-ion content, both of which quietly invalidate experiments. The lots we ship test at 98 percent purity or higher by reverse-phase HPLC, with mass spec confirming sequence identity to within 1 Da.
What you get with the vial
- Sealed glass vial of lyophilised BPC-157, sealed under inert atmosphere
- Batch-specific Certificate of Analysis with HPLC chromatogram and mass spec trace
- Lot number printed on the label so the CoA matches what is in your hand
If a vial does not match the spec on its CoA, we refund it. That is the entire money-back guarantee and we have not had to lean on it often, but it is there for a reason.
From order to your bench
UK orders posted Monday to Thursday are dispatched the same working day in temperature-stable packaging. About nine out of ten arrive within 48 hours. Lyophilised BPC-157 is stable at room temperature for short periods but should be moved to a freezer at minus 20 C on arrival for long-term storage. Once reconstituted in bacteriostatic water, it is generally kept refrigerated and used within a couple of weeks for any experimental work where peptide integrity matters.
Bulk and questions
If you need ten or more vials of BPC-157 for a longer study or a multi-arm protocol, message support and we will quote a custom price rather than asking you to add to cart ten times. Our live chat is staffed by humans during UK working hours, including the people who actually pack the orders, so technical questions about reconstitution, storage, or the CoA itself get a useful answer rather than a script.
