Description
Ipamorelin 5mg — selective ghrelin receptor agonist for research
Ipamorelin 5mg is supplied as lyophilized powder at 99%+ purity for laboratory research on ghrelin receptor signaling. Five milligrams is a pilot or single-arm quantity: enough to build a concentration–response curve in a cell preparation and keep material in reserve for a repeat.
Ships from within the USA. Supplied for laboratory research use only, and not for human or veterinary use.
Other sizes. The same compound is also supplied as a 10mg vial, and blended with CJC-1295 in a two-peptide vial.
About Ipamorelin 5mg
Ipamorelin is a pentapeptide agonist at the growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Its interest as a tool compound comes from selectivity: in the published characterization work it produces a growth hormone secretory response in pituitary preparations without the corticotroph and lactotroph activity seen with several earlier secretagogues, which makes it useful when a study needs to attribute an observation to one receptor rather than several.
Purity by reverse-phase HPLC, identity by mass spectrometry. The certificate speaks to composition, not to behavior in any model.
Research applications of Ipamorelin 5mg
- Ghrelin receptor concentration–response work in vitro
- Calcium flux and inositol phosphate readouts in transfected lines
- Pituitary cell culture secretagogue studies
- Receptor selectivity comparisons against non-selective agonists
- Assay development requiring a selective reference agonist
How this vial is supplied and handled
The vial arrives as a lyophilized cake or film in a sealed, stoppered vial. Keep it sealed and frozen at -20 °C until the day it is opened; brief periods at ambient temperature in transit are expected and do not compromise dry powder. Let the vial reach room temperature before breaking the seal so atmospheric moisture does not condense onto the cake.
Reconstitute by running the diluent slowly down the inside wall of the vial rather than onto the powder, and swirl rather than shake — peptides denature at an air-liquid interface. Hold the solution at 2–8 °C for short-term use, or aliquot and freeze for longer, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, the most common cause of a quiet loss of activity between one experiment and the next.
Ordering IPAMORELIN 5mg in the United States
IPAMORELIN 5mg ships to research laboratories throughout the USA, dispatched domestically from our US facility. Every parcel is tracked, and because the material stays inside the country there is no customs entry, no broker fee and no border hold between our shelf and your bench.
Shipping is calculated at checkout and orders over $200 USD ship free anywhere in the United States. Bulk pricing is available on larger quantities — email us before checkout and we will quote it.
Purity guarantee
If an independent laboratory tests this material and reports purity below the figure stated on its certificate, we refund the order and reimburse what the test cost you. Send the lot number printed on the vial along with the third-party report and we will settle it without argument.
The guarantee covers the analysis, not the outcome of your work. What Ipamorelin 5mg does in your model is your experiment; what is in the vial is our responsibility.
Research use only
Ipamorelin 5mg is supplied strictly for laboratory research carried out by qualified professionals. It is not a drug, a dietary supplement or a medical device.
It has not been evaluated or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any use. It is not for human or veterinary consumption, for clinical investigation in human subjects, or for therapeutic, diagnostic or cosmetic application of any kind.
We do not provide dosing, administration or protocol advice, and we cannot answer questions about use in people or animals. By ordering, you confirm that you are acquiring this material for lawful research in a controlled laboratory setting and that you will not redistribute it for any other purpose.

Analytical note — Ipamorelin. Three of the five residues are non-standard: alpha-aminoisobutyric acid, D-2-naphthylalanine and D-phenylalanine. Amino-acid analysis after hydrolysis cannot distinguish D from L, so composition analysis alone does not confirm this sequence; identity rests on mass and on the synthesis route.
Identity references The molecular formula, molecular mass and CAS registry number above are taken from the PubChem record linked in the table, not from a supplier datasheet, so every figure can be checked against an independent source in one click. Sequences are given as reported in the peptide literature, in the one-letter or three-letter convention as appropriate, with any non-standard residue named in full. Where a compound exists in more than one form — a free peptide and a metal complex, a fragment and its parent protein, a modified and an unmodified analog — the form supplied is the one identified here, and the mass on the certificate of analysis is what distinguishes it.
