How to Reconstitute Selank: A Step-by-Step Guide
Reconstituting Selank is not identical to reconstituting any other compound in this library. Freely water-soluble.
In plain English
Dissolves instantly in bacteriostatic water. The thing to plan for is not mixing but what you mix into: use low-binding tubes and pipette tips for any dilute solutions, because this molecule sticks to ordinary glass and plastic.
What Selank actually is
Selank came out of the same Moscow programme as Semax, built from tuftsin — a tiny natural fragment released from antibodies — with the same stabilising tail added. Its research literature centres on anxiety-related behaviour and the brain signalling systems associated with it.
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.

Diluent selection for Selank
Freely water-soluble. Two basic residues (Lys, Arg) give the molecule a strong net positive charge at neutral pH, which drives high aqueous solubility but also makes it the most adsorption-prone short peptide in this catalogue at dilute concentrations.
Common reconstitution reference
A 10 mg vial in 2 mL gives 5 mg/mL. Use low-bind labware for onward dilutions.
Open the Selank calculatorMethod notes for this compound
- Use low-bind tubes and pipette tips for dilute working solutions; the strong positive charge promotes surface adsorption.
- Avoid unnecessary transfers between containers — each one is an opportunity for adsorptive loss.
- Standard refrigerated storage is sufficient; elaborate light protection is not required for this sequence.
What Selank is studied for
The most-populated area of the Selank literature, examined in behavioural anxiety models.
Studies have investigated interaction with both systems without the sedative profile of classical anxiolytics.
Its parent tetrapeptide is immunomodulatory, and some research follows that thread.
Investigated in learning and memory paradigms alongside its stress-response work.
