SS-31
SS-31 (Elamipretide) — Mitochondria-Targeted Peptide
SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a synthetic D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH₂ tetrapeptide that selectively targets the inner mitochondrial membrane. Its positive charge and aromatic residues facilitate accumulation at cardiolipin-rich mitochondrial membranes, where it scavenges reactive oxygen species, stabilizes cytochrome c, and preserves cristae architecture. Research applications include cardiac ischemia-reperfusion models, aging-related mitochondrial dysfunction studies, and neurodegenerative disease models. For research use only — not for human consumption.
Third-Party Tested. Every Lot.
Every batch of SS-31 undergoes independent HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis through an accredited third-party laboratory before it is released for sale. No exceptions. No internal-only certificates.
RP-HPLC Analysis
Every lot measured by reverse-phase HPLC. SS-31 consistently achieves 99.3%+ purity across batches.
ESI Mass Spec
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry confirms exact molecular weight and rules out structural isomers or impurities.
Lot-Specific CoA
Your Certificate of Analysis references your exact lot number with actual chromatogram data — not a generic template.
Theoretical Research Analysis
All research information below reflects published preclinical literature only. This product is not for human use, consumption, or clinical application of any kind.
SS-31 has the best-characterized mitochondrial targeting mechanism of any synthetic peptide. Its cardiolipin-binding property enables precise inner membrane localization, and multiple in vivo studies have demonstrated functional protection in cardiac and skeletal muscle models.
