SKU: SX10-ER Category:

Semax (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) is a synthetic heptapeptide analog of ACTH fragments 4-7 with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro extension that confers metabolic stability and CNS penetration. With a molecular weight of 813.94 g/mol, it was developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences and has been studied in models of neuroprotection, neuroplasticity, and cognitive function for over three decades.

Research has examined Semax for its interactions with the BDNF pathway, VEGF upregulation in CNS tissue, dopaminergic signaling, and protection against ischemic brain injury. Its capacity to modulate gene expression in neuronal tissue, including genes involved in synaptic transmission and immune response, positions it as a multifaceted tool in neuroscience research.

Each Etched Research vial contains 10mg of lyophilized powder.

Research at a Glance
  • What it is: A synthetic 7-amino-acid peptide built from a short fragment of the hormone ACTH, studied as a nootropic (a thinking-and-focus compound).
  • Researchers have studied it for: memory and recovery in stroke models, brain protection after a loss of blood flow (ischemia), and changes in brain gene activity and BDNF (a nerve growth signal).
  • Evidence level: Mostly small or Russian-origin studies, plus rat models. The English-language record is thin, and there are no large independent Western trials.
  • The short version: Semax has been studied mainly in Russia, where researchers looked at how it affected memory, brain injury, and nerve-signal genes in stroke and animal models. Most of that work is small, early, or published in Russian. This is a summary of what researchers observed in their models, not a claim about what it does for a person.

Frequently asked questions

Does the product come with instructions?

No. Etched supplies research materials, not use instructions. Each vial ships labeled with the compound name, the labeled amount, and the lot number, and that is what comes in the box. Etched does not provide instructions for use, dosing, or administration for any product, on the label, on this page, or by email. General laboratory handling notes (storage, what bacteriostatic water is) are on the FAQ page at https://etchedresearch.com/faq/. All products are sold for research use only, not for human consumption.

What is the amount of peptide in this product?

The label reads Semax 10mg. That figure is the labeled net quantity of Semax in the vial, supplied as lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. It is not the weight of the vial and not a reconstituted volume. Where a Janoshik Analytical report exists for a lot, the measured result for that lot is on the report itself, and the reports that exist are listed on the COA page at https://etchedresearch.com/coa/. Etched ships lyophilized powder only.

Are additional supplies needed?

Nothing else is included, and Etched sells the lyophilized compound only. Bacteriostatic water is sterile water with a small amount of benzyl alcohol added, used in laboratory settings to reconstitute lyophilized (freeze-dried) research peptides into solution. Etched does not sell bacteriostatic water as a product. It is described here only to explain the reconstitution step in a research context. Any supplies a laboratory setting requires are sourced by the researcher.

How is purity verified?

By a third-party laboratory, named. Janoshik Analytical confirms compound identity by mass spectrometry and measures purity by HPLC. Etched does not use vague "third-party tested" language without naming the lab. The measured number for a tested lot is on that lot's report, not a mood word. Where a Janoshik report exists for a compound it is listed on the COA page at https://etchedresearch.com/coa/, and the report itself carries the lot number and the measured purity. Not every listing has a report posted yet, and the COA page shows which do.

Where do products ship from?

Etched ships within the United States only. There is no international shipping. Orders are fulfilled domestically from within the USA. Orders ship in plain, unmarked packaging with no indication of the contents on the outside.

Who is eligible to purchase?

Etched sells to buyers who are 21 years of age or older and who are qualified researchers, research professionals, or affiliated with a research institution, purchasing for in vitro laboratory research. Every order requires an attestation to those three points at checkout, and the order will not process without it. Research Use Only (RUO) means a product is sold only as a material for laboratory and research use. RUO compounds are not drugs, are not approved by the FDA for human consumption, and are not sold or intended for personal use. Shipping is to United States addresses only.
