Tesamorelin
GHRH analogue studied for growth hormone secretion and body composition research.
Molecular reference
Research background
Tesamorelin is a synthetic analogue of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) consisting of the full 44-amino acid sequence of human GHRH with a trans-3-hexenoic acid group. It has been studied for its effects on GH secretion and visceral adiposity in research settings.
Preclinical and clinical research has investigated its role in modulating body composition, particularly in the reduction of visceral adipose tissue in specific populations.

Reconstitution
- Supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder for laboratory reconstitution.
- Bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) is the most common reconstitution solvent for multi-use research handling; sterile or acetic-acid solutions are used for specific compounds.
- Introduce solvent slowly against the vial wall rather than directly onto the powder, and allow it to dissolve without vigorous shaking.
- Use the reconstitution calculator to determine solvent volume for a target concentration in your protocol.
Storage & handling
- Lyophilized powder: store sealed at -20 °C for long-term stability; short periods at 2–8 °C are generally acceptable.
- Once reconstituted: refrigerate at 2–8 °C and protect from light; use within the compound-specific window noted on the COA.
- Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles of reconstituted solution.
- Keep away from direct light and heat at all times.
Purity & verification
Every Popular Peptides batch is third-party tested by HPLC and LC-MS with a published Certificate of Analysis (≥99% purity).
