How to Reconstitute Epithalon: A Step-by-Step Guide
Reconstituting Epithalon is not identical to reconstituting any other compound in this library. Extremely water-soluble and effectively instantaneous to dissolve.
Overview
Effectively instant. With only four amino acids and no water-repelling sections, it dissolves the moment liquid touches it. If a vial does not clear immediately, the problem is the vial, not the chemistry.
What Epithalon actually is
Epithalon is the smallest molecule in this library — just four amino acids. It was distilled from an extract of the pineal gland studied in the Soviet Union from the 1970s, representing an attempt to find the shortest sequence that carried the activity of a complex tissue extract.
Supplied for laboratory research use only — not for human or animal use.
Third-party tested by HPLC and LC-MS, ≥98% purity, with a Certificate of Analysis on every order. Ships across Canada.

Diluent selection for Epithalon
Extremely water-soluble and effectively instantaneous to dissolve. With only four residues, two of them acidic, there is no hydrophobic character and no conformational complexity whatsoever. If an Epithalon vial does not clear immediately, the problem is the vial, not the chemistry.
Common reconstitution reference
Dissolves instantly. A 10 mg vial in 2 mL gives 5 mg/mL.

- Do not over-engineer storage for this compound — refrigeration and a sound seal are genuinely sufficient.
- Avoid prolonged storage of reconstituted solution, since Asp-Gly isomerisation is slow but cumulative.
- Verify the analytical method behind any purity figure, as short polar peptides are easy to under-resolve.
What Epithalon is studied for
