Description
Humanin is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in cellular stress, mitochondrial signalling and aging-related research. This listing is the research-grade reagent form, prepared for Canadian laboratories that need a documented, analytically verified peptide rather than an unspecified powder. It is sold strictly for in-vitro laboratory research and is not for human or veterinary use.
Overview
Supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed vial, 10mg per vial, in a single-vial format or a box of ten for groups running extended experiments or multiple arms. Lyophilization is the standard presentation for peptide reagents because the dried solid is far more stable in transit and storage than a solution, and it lets the investigator choose the reconstitution solvent and working concentration appropriate to the assay. Each production batch is submitted to Janoshik Analytical, an independent third-party laboratory, for purity determination by HPLC and identity confirmation by mass spectrometry. The certificate of analysis is matched to the batch you receive, so the documentation in your records corresponds to the material on your bench. Orders ship cold and discreetly packaged from within Canada with nationwide tracking.
What it is known for
Humanin is best known as one of the first identified mitochondrial-derived peptides — a short peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome rather than the nuclear genome — which is why it appears so often in the literature on mitochondrial signalling, cellular stress response and aging biology. Buyers choose this listing over cheaper unverified sources for one reason: the analytical paper trail. Independent HPLC and mass spectrometry results, tied to the specific batch, mean a result can be attributed to a characterized reagent instead of an unknown.
Key features
- Lyophilized powder format — The dried solid tolerates shipping and cold storage far better than a pre-made solution, and you control the solvent, buffer and final concentration your protocol calls for.
- Independent third-party testing by Janoshik — Analysis performed outside the supplier removes the conflict of interest inherent in self-reported purity figures.
- HPLC purity analysis — Quantifies how much of the material is the target peptide versus process-related impurities — the figure that determines whether your dosing calculations reflect reality.
- Mass spectrometry identity confirmation — Confirms the molecular weight matches Humanin, so you know you have the correct peptide and not a mislabelled or substituted sequence.
- Batch-matched certificate of analysis — Gives you documentation that ties directly to the vial in hand, which is what institutional record-keeping, method sections and internal QA actually require.
- 10mg vial or box of ten — Run a pilot without over-committing, or secure a consistent supply for a longer study where switching batches mid-experiment would introduce a variable.
- Domestic Canadian dispatch with tracking — Shorter transit than international orders, no customs holds sitting on a cold-chain package, and visibility on arrival timing so someone is there to receive it.
- Discreet cold shipping — The material arrives in the condition it left in, packaged without drawing attention to its contents.
Benefits
- Results you can defend, because the reagent’s purity and identity are documented by an outside lab
- Less variability between experiments when you buy a matched box rather than sourcing batch by batch
- Faster delivery and fewer border complications than importing research peptides into Canada
- Full flexibility over reconstitution solvent, concentration and aliquoting strategy
- Documentation ready for grant records, method write-ups and lab audits without chasing a supplier for paperwork

Important information
- Research use only. This product is not a drug, supplement, food or cosmetic, is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, and is not for human or veterinary use, ingestion or administration.
- Keep the vial sealed and cold on arrival. Lyophilized peptides are considerably more stable as a dry solid than in solution — reconstitute only what your protocol requires.
- Once reconstituted, store the solution cold, minimize freeze-thaw cycles, and consider aliquoting to preserve the remainder.
- Choose a reconstitution solvent appropriate to your assay and to the peptide’s solubility; solvent choice can affect downstream readouts.
- Review the batch certificate of analysis against your protocol’s purity requirements before use, and record the batch number in your experimental notes.
- If your study will run across several months, the box of ten keeps you on a consistent batch and removes lot-to-lot variation as a confounding factor.
Common questions
What is Humanin?
Humanin is a mitochondrial-derived peptide — a short peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome — that appears widely in research on mitochondrial signalling, cellular stress response and aging biology. This listing supplies it as a research reagent for in-vitro laboratory work.
Is a certificate of analysis included?
Yes. Each batch is tested independently by Janoshik for HPLC purity and mass spectrometry identity, and the certificate is matched to the batch you receive.
How is it supplied and does it come reconstituted?
It ships as a lyophilized powder in a sealed vial, not in solution. You reconstitute it in a research solvent appropriate to your protocol, which lets you set the concentration your assay requires.
What is the difference between the single vial and the box of ten?
Both contain 10mg per vial. The single vial suits a pilot or a short experiment; the box of ten gives you a larger quantity on a consistent batch, which matters when you need reagent uniformity across a longer study.
How should I store it?
Keep the sealed vial cold as received. After reconstitution, store the solution cold, aliquot where practical and limit freeze-thaw cycles.
Can this be used in humans or animals?
No. It is sold exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and is not a drug, supplement or veterinary product. It must not be ingested or administered.
Where does it ship from?
From within Canada, cold and discreetly packaged, with tracking nationwide — so there is no international customs delay sitting on the package.
In summary
A documented Humanin reagent for Canadian labs: lyophilized 10mg vials, independent HPLC and mass spectrometry results, a certificate of analysis tied to your batch, and domestic tracked shipping. Choose the single vial for a pilot or the box of ten to keep one batch running through a full study.
