SS31 10mg

Price range: £39.99 through £64.99

For research use only — Not for human or animal use

SS-31 10mg, also known as SS-31 Elamipretide, is a research peptide developed for advanced laboratory research into mitochondrial biology. Since its introduction, the peptide has attracted considerable scientific interest because of its unique properties and its use across a wide range of experimental models investigating cellular function.

Today, SS-31 continues to feature in published research exploring how mitochondria contribute to normal biological processes and how changes in mitochondrial activity may influence wider physiological systems.

Our SS-31 10mg is supplied as a high-purity lyophilised peptide for research and analytical purposes only. It is not for human or veterinary use and should only be handled by qualified professionals working within appropriate laboratory environments.

 

What Is SS-31 10mg?

SS-31 is a short synthetic peptide consisting of four amino acids. It was developed as part of ongoing efforts to better understand mitochondrial biology and has since become one of the most widely recognised mitochondrial-targeting research peptides available to scientific laboratories.

Unlike many experimental compounds that are investigated for receptor activity or hormone signalling, SS-31 is primarily studied because of its association with mitochondrial structures involved in maintaining normal cellular function. This distinctive research focus has made it a valuable reagent across multiple scientific disciplines.

 

Discovery & Development

The development of SS-31 originated from research seeking to better understand mitochondrial performance at a cellular level. Scientists recognised that mitochondria are involved in numerous biological processes beyond energy metabolism, leading to increased interest in compounds capable of supporting more detailed laboratory investigation.

Over the past two decades, SS-31 has appeared in hundreds of scientific publications covering a diverse range of research areas. The peptide has become particularly valuable because it allows researchers to investigate mitochondrial behaviour using consistent laboratory models while expanding scientific understanding of cellular physiology.

 

Current Areas Of Research

SS-31 continues to be investigated across numerous fields of biomedical research. Rather than focusing on a single biological pathway, scientists use the peptide in different experimental settings to examine how mitochondrial function contributes to tissue health and cellular performance.

Published laboratory studies have included research involving:

  • Skeletal muscle physiology
  • Cardiovascular research models
  • Neurological laboratory studies
  • Retinal and ocular research
  • Age-related cellular investigations
  • Metabolic research
  • Exercise physiology
  • General mitochondrial biology

Each area continues to generate new scientific data that helps researchers better understand the role mitochondria play throughout the body. These investigations remain experimental and are conducted exclusively within controlled research environments.

 

Why Researchers Continue To Study SS-31

Interest in SS-31 has continued to grow because mitochondria influence almost every cell within the body. As laboratory technology has advanced, researchers have been able to investigate mitochondrial function in greater detail, leading to increasing demand for compounds that support high-quality experimental work.

Modern research involving SS-31 spans universities, biotechnology organisations and academic laboratories around the world. Ongoing studies examine cellular resilience, metabolic efficiency and mitochondrial organisation while contributing to the broader scientific understanding of normal cellular processes.

The expanding volume of published literature has helped establish SS-31 as one of the most recognised research peptides within the field of mitochondrial science, with new investigations continuing to explore additional laboratory applications.

 

Storage & Laboratory Handling

For long-term stability, store unopened SS-31 at -20°C in a dry environment away from heat, moisture and direct sunlight.

If reconstitution is required, laboratories commonly use bacteriostatic water or another validated laboratory-grade diluent appropriate for the experimental protocol. Once prepared, samples are generally refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C until required.

To help maintain sample integrity throughout a research project, laboratories should avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Where multiple experiments are planned, aliquoting the solution after reconstitution is considered good laboratory practice.
