What Semax is
If you are comparing Semax suppliers, compare certificates rather than claims. The current Semax lot here, KB29412, was tested by an independent laboratory: 99.84% by HPLC-UV, identity confirmed by LC-MS (the expected molecular weight is 813.93 g/mol for the seven-residue MEHFPGP peptide), and 12.07 mg measured in the 10 mg vial.
Semax is sold in 10 mg vials at $29.99 through Klow.bio, where you check out. The lot number on your vial links back to its record on this site, so you can confirm the results apply to the material you received.
Structure
Semax is linear with a free N-terminus (Met1) and free C-terminal acid (Pro7). Methionine 1 is the residue most sensitive to oxidation, which adds 16 Da per oxygen and is one of the changes LC-MS can detect. The molecule contains no cysteine or tryptophan.

Storage and handling
Store sealed, dry and protected from light at the temperature stated on the vial label. Allow a cold vial to reach room temperature before opening. Lyophilized material absorbs moisture from the air, and absorbed moisture restarts the reactions that drying slows, so keep vials sealed until needed. Storage and stability guide.
