What is BPC-157?

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide corresponding to a partial sequence of a protein identified in gastric juice. In the laboratory it is used as a research peptide in tissue-repair, angiogenesis, cytoprotection and gastrointestinal-mucosa models, and as a reference standard in analytical method development.

Research applications

  • Tissue-repair and wound-healing research models
  • Angiogenesis and cytoprotection studies
  • Tendon, ligament and muscle-recovery research
  • Gastrointestinal mucosa research
  • Reference standard for HPLC / MS method development

Handling & reconstitution

BPC-157 is supplied as a lyophilized powder for reconstitution in bacteriostatic or sterile water. See the reconstitution guide and use the reconstitution calculator to work out concentration and syringe units; for diluent choice see bacteriostatic water vs sterile water.

Quality & Certificate of Analysis

Every BPC-157 lot is verified by independent third-party HPLC (purity) and mass spectrometry (identity), with a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis included on each order.
