Frequently Asked Questions
Which Selank format suits in-vitro work?
The refill cartridge is made for the Core Research Peptide Pen v3 dispensing system. For cell-culture and other in-vitro assays the standard Selank 10mg vial is the usual choice, as it can be reconstituted in any appropriate buffer.
Is a Certificate of Analysis provided with each refill?
Yes. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis documenting RP-HPLC purity, ESI-MS identity, LAL endotoxin result, and Karl Fischer moisture content is included with every Selank Refill 10mg order.
