LABS & ACADEMIA · UNIVERSITIES
University laboratories are the audience this site was always meant to serve, and the practical questions they ask differ from everyone else's. Can we invoice the department? Does each lot carry a certificate we can cite in a methods section? How is the material shipped and stored? Which compounds do other academic groups in South Africa order?
This page answers those directly. It also summarises the literature the most-requested compounds come from, so a postgraduate student writing a proposal can find the primary thread quickly. Everything is supplied for laboratory research only, and every vial carries an independent Janoshik Analytical certificate of identity and HPLC purity, or a request link where one is not yet published.
Academic requests cluster around five literatures. Repair and angiogenesis, with BPC-157 and thymosin β4 in rodent tendon, muscle and wound models. Copper-peptide biology, with GHK-Cu's human collagen trials and gene-expression work. Mitochondrial function, with SS-31, MOTS-c and NAD+. Neuropeptides, with Semax and Selank from the Russian clinical tradition. And circadian and sleep biology, with VIP in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and GHRH in slow-wave sleep.
What a methods section needs from a supplier is identity, purity and traceability. Our certificates are independent Janoshik Analytical HPLC reports naming the compound and its purity; product pages publish the storage and reconstitution literature; and bacteriostatic water and sterile consumables are supplied alongside. We do not claim mass-spectrometry data we do not hold, and a lab should run its own confirmatory analysis where a protocol requires it.
Research context only — what each compound has been studied for in published work, not what it does for anyone. Independently tested by Janoshik Analytical.
The most-requested academic compound: rodent tendon, ligament, muscle and gut-barrier models with mechanical and histological endpoints, and growth-factor and nitric-oxide signalling as the proposed mechanism.
View product and certificate →Copper tripeptide with human collagen trials and a gene-expression literature spanning thousands of genes. Requested by biochemistry, dermatology and wound-healing groups alike.
View product and certificate →The cardiolipin-binding mitochondrial peptide with a 2025 regulatory approval, requested by mitochondrial and ischaemia groups.
View product and certificate →ACTH(4-10) analogue with BDNF-induction and neurotrophin-transcription studies, requested by neuroscience groups.
View product and certificate →Vasoactive intestinal peptide, the suprachiasmatic clock signal and a gut-epithelial research tool, requested by physiology groups.
View product and certificate →Bacteriostatic water for reconstitution, supplied alongside the research vials.
View product and certificate →Universities in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Durban, Bloemfontein, Gqeberha and Potchefstroom are all served from our Johannesburg hub by The Courier Guy: next business day in Gauteng, one to two days to the coastal and central campuses, tracked throughout. Weekday orders paid before noon dispatch the same afternoon. Campus PUDO lockers are selectable at checkout where the department's stores office cannot sign. Shipping is free over R2,500, which most departmental orders exceed.
Questions before ordering: WhatsApp 076 680 0306 or 072 926 7667. Delivery detail for your city: research peptides in Pretoria.
Yes. Place the order and message us on WhatsApp with the department name and purchase-order reference; we issue an invoice naming each compound and lot.
Yes. Each certificate is an independent Janoshik Analytical report stating identity and HPLC purity, with a lot reference. We do not hold mass-spectrometry data and do not claim it.
Lyophilised, sealed and tracked with The Courier Guy. Storage guidance per compound is on the product page, and reconstitution is covered on the calculator and guide pages.
No. We supply reagents and point to the literature. Experimental design is the laboratory's own.
Anyone conducting laboratory research may order. See the pharmacy students and medical students pages for the reading-list angle.
RESEARCH SETS
Educational content — not medical advice. All products supplied for research purposes only. Not for human consumption.
Start from what you want to change rather than from a compound name. Every goal below opens a full vertical — what the research points to, what we stock for it, and how to run it.
Systemic wellness — the compounds most studied for how you age, recover overnight and feel day to day.
Training, recovery and tissue-repair research — for getting back to the gym, the field or the trail sooner.
Start from what you want to change — skin, hair, focus, mood, libido — and see what research points to.
Curated entry points for specific researchers — women, veterinary work, first-timers and bulk buyers.
