Product Overview
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide (7 amino acids) derived from the human immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin. This research-grade peptide has been extensively studied in laboratory settings for its molecular interactions with neurotransmitter systems, immune modulation pathways, and neuropeptide receptor mechanisms. Selank has been investigated for its unique synthetic modifications that extend biological stability compared to the parent tuftsin sequence.
Our Selank research peptide is manufactured to the highest standards, with third-party verified purity exceeding 99%. Each vial contains 5mg of lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptide powder, accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) from an independent laboratory.
Research Applications
Selank has been the subject of numerous peer-reviewed studies examining its role as a synthetic tuftsin analogue. Research has focused on its molecular interactions with neurotransmitter systems (including GABA, serotonin, and dopamine pathways), immunomodulatory mechanisms, and comparative analysis with related peptide analogues. Published studies have investigated Selank’s molecular pathways in cell culture models and laboratory environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Selank?
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide (7 amino acids) derived from the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin. It has been extensively studied in preclinical research settings for its molecular interactions with neurotransmitter systems, immunomodulation pathways, and neuropeptide receptor mechanisms. Selank contains synthetic modifications that extend its biological stability compared to the parent tuftsin sequence.
What is Selank used for in research?
Selank is used in laboratory research to study neurotransmitter system modulation, immunomodulatory mechanisms, and synthetic peptide structure-function relationships. Research applications include GABAergic/serotonergic pathway analysis, immune system peptide interactions, and comparative studies with tuftsin and related analogues. This product is for research purposes only and is not intended for human consumption.
How should Selank be stored?
Store lyophilized Selank at -20°C (freezer) for long-term stability. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, store at 2-8°C (refrigerator) and use within 30 days for optimal stability. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain peptide integrity and molecular stability.
Does each vial come with a Certificate of Analysis?
Yes, every batch of our Selank peptide is tested by an independent, third-party laboratory. Each order includes access to the Certificate of Analysis (COA) verifying purity, molecular weight, and quality specifications through HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis.
What is the relationship between Selank and tuftsin?
Selank is a synthetic analogue derived from tuftsin, a tetrapeptide component of immunoglobulin G. While tuftsin has a short biological half-life, Selank incorporates synthetic modifications (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro) that extend stability and allow for research into sustained peptide activity mechanisms, making it a valuable tool for studying tuftsin-related pathways with improved molecular stability.
What research areas benefit from studying Selank?
Selank research contributes to multiple scientific fields including neuropharmacology (neurotransmitter system modulation), immunology (immunomodulatory peptide mechanisms), peptide chemistry (synthetic analogue design and stability), and molecular biology (signal transduction and receptor binding studies). All research should be conducted in controlled laboratory environments by qualified personnel.
