What to Check When Your PNC-27 Arrives
Not every irregularity on arrival is a defect, and not every compound is defective under the same conditions. Here is what actually matters when a PNC-27 shipment arrives.
Overview
Look for an intact cake; note the condition for your records.
What PNC-27 actually is
A designed peptide studied only in the lab, in cell culture, for a striking trick: it latches onto HDM-2 on certain cancer cells and pokes holes in their outer membrane, breaking those cells apart while reportedly leaving healthy cells alone.
Supplied for laboratory research use only — not for human or animal use.
Third-party tested by HPLC and LC-MS, ≥99% purity, with a Certificate of Analysis on every order. Ships across Canada.

Arrival inspection for PNC-27
Inspect for an intact cake and sound stopper. As a synthetic peptide it tolerates short ambient transit; document condition for records.
Storage on arrival
Documentation to check
Confirm identity by mass and check purity by RP-HPLC; for a 32-mer, deletion sequences are the characteristic synthesis impurity and should be resolved from the main peak.
What PNC-27 is studied for
Studied for binding HDM-2 displayed on the surface of certain cancer cells in vitro.
Examined for forming transmembrane pores that lead to lysis of targeted cells in culture.
Investigated for a reported preference for tumour cells over normal cells in preclinical cell-culture models.
Summarizes published preclinical literature. Provided for research reference only; not a claim of efficacy or a description of human use.
