Questions

Answered straight.

What is Ipamorelin?

Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and one of the earliest selective growth-hormone secretagogues reported in the literature. Ouralus supplies it as a lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only, with a third-party HPLC certificate of analysis published where tested.

What is the amino-acid sequence of Ipamorelin?

The reported sequence is Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH2 (Aib = α-aminoisobutyric acid; C-terminal amide), molecular formula C38H49N9O5 (PubChem CID 9831659, CAS 170851-70-4).

Who can order?

These materials are supplied strictly for laboratory and research use, to purchasers of legal age. They are not supplements, drugs, or foods, and are not for human or animal consumption.

Is Ipamorelin legal to buy?

Ipamorelin is supplied strictly as a research chemical for laboratory research use only — it is not a drug, supplement, or food, and not for human or animal consumption. It ships to purchasers of legal age for research use. Buyers are responsible for compliance with the laws that apply to research materials in their own jurisdiction.

Is a certificate of analysis provided with Ipamorelin?

Ouralus third-party HPLC-tests its catalogue lots and publishes the certificate of analysis per product as each report is finalized. A certificate is not posted for Ipamorelin yet, so treat its identity and purity as unconfirmed until one appears here. Supplied as a research chemical for laboratory use only.
