SS-31 30mg (§-31)

Description

Our SS-31 30mg vial holds 30mg of lyophilized SS-31, a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide. We sell it under the label §-31. It’s intended for lab research only.

What is SS-31?

SS-31, also called elamipretide, is a four-amino-acid peptide: D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH2. It alternates positive charges with aromatic rings, a design that lets it slip through cell membranes and collect in mitochondria.

Once there, it binds cardiolipin, a fat that’s found almost only in the inner mitochondrial membrane and that holds the energy-making machinery in place.

How SS-31 works

Cardiolipin holds together the protein complexes that make ATP in mitochondria. When it’s oxidized, those complexes work less well and leak more free radicals.

SS-31 binds cardiolipin and protects it, which in lab studies kept the electron transport chain working more efficiently and cut oxidative damage. It doesn’t depend on the membrane voltage to get into mitochondria, which sets it apart from other targeted antioxidants.

What the research says about SS-31

Hazel Szeto and Peter Schiller designed it in the early 2000s; SS stands for Szeto-Schiller. Stealth BioTherapeutics took it into clinical trials for mitochondrial diseases, including primary mitochondrial myopathy and Barth syndrome.

It’s one of the few mitochondria-targeted peptides with real human trial data. This vial is research material, not the clinical product.

SS-31 30mg purity and testing

The purity spec for SS-31 30mg is 99% or higher by HPLC, and that’s the floor for each batch.

The label on every vial shows the compound, the amount and the batch. Ask us for the certificate of analysis for your batch and we’ll email it over, which is handy if your lab keeps paperwork on file.

Write the batch number in your lab notes when you open a new vial. If you ever need to compare results between orders, that’s the detail you’ll want.

SS-31 30mg reconstitution and concentration

Concentration is just the amount in the vial divided by the liquid you add. With 30mg in this vial:

• 2mL of diluent gives 15mg/mL
• 3mL of diluent gives 10mg/mL
• 5mL of diluent gives 6mg/mL

Pick the volume that keeps your own calculations simple, then write the concentration and the mixing date on the label.

Use a sterile diluent such as our research diluent solution. Warm the sealed vial to room temperature first so no condensation gets in, add the liquid slowly along the glass wall, and swirl gently until it’s clear. Never shake.

How to store SS-31 30mg

Unopened, keep SS-31 30mg in a fridge at 2 to 8°C, or in a freezer at -20°C if it’ll be a while before you use it. Keep it out of direct light. Once mixed, keep it refrigerated and use it within about four weeks.

What you need with SS-31 30mg

You’ll need a diluent to mix SS-31 30mg. Our 10mL research diluent covers several vials, and the 2mL diluent kit gives you a fresh vial for each mix. Add sterile syringes and alcohol swabs, and the 10-slot vial case if you want your vials stored upright in the fridge.

Buy SS-31 30mg in bulk

You can buy SS-31 30mg one vial at a time or in a multi-pack. The options in the dropdown are:

• Single vial: $98.00
• 5 pack: 5 vials for $441.00 instead of $490.00, about $88.20 a vial
• 10 pack: 10 vials for $833.00 instead of $980.00, about $83.30 a vial

Every vial in a pack is the same product and batch type as the single vial. The saving is the only difference, so buy the pack if your study will use them before they expire.
