What to Check When Your Selank 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 Selank shipment arrives.
In plain English
Robust in transit. Check the cake is present and the seal is sound. Shipping temperature is not a concern for a small molecule with no reactive parts.
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.

Arrival inspection for Selank
Robust in transit. Inspect for cake integrity and a sound seal; ambient shipping temperature is not a concern for a small, oxidation-resistant peptide like this one.
Storage on arrival
Documentation to check
Confirm the molecular ion near 751.9 Da. With no oxidation-prone residues, the oxidised-satellite check that matters for Semax and TB-500 is not the relevant concern — focus instead on the RP-HPLC trace for deletion sequences at the proline positions.
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.
Summarizes published preclinical literature. Provided for research reference only; not a claim of efficacy or a description of human use.
