TB-500

Description

TB-500 Overview

TB-500 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from thymosin beta-4, a naturally occurring protein studied for its role in molecular signaling and pathway dynamics.

Research has focused on its potential influence on matrix remodeling, angiogenesis and molecular migration in preclinical and laboratory models. TB-500 is of particular interest in work involving connective tissue, structural dynamics and extracellular matrix pathways.

TB-500 Research Focus

Published laboratory and preclinical work on this peptide has concentrated on the following areas:

• Matrix remodeling
• Angiogenesis
• Molecular migration in laboratory models
• Connective tissue and extracellular matrix pathways

Available Formats

TB-500 is available in 10mg vials. Each strength can be ordered as a single vial or as a pack of 10 vials; choose your options above before adding to the cart.

Handling and Storage

Store and handle this product according to the product label and your laboratory’s standard operating procedures. For background on the factors that affect stability, such as temperature, moisture, light and repeated freeze-thaw cycles, read our guide to peptide storage and stability.

Where TB-500 Fits in Our Range

Peptides in this category are studied in laboratory and preclinical models of structural remodeling, angiogenesis and extracellular matrix dynamics. The range includes BPC-157, TB-500 and the copper-binding tripeptide GHK-Cu, along with blends that combine them: BPC-157 + TB-500, GLOW and KLOW.

Choosing a Format

The strength printed on a vial describes the total amount of material it contains, not a concentration. Work out how much material each planned experiment uses before ordering. The 10-vial pack suits a longer series of experiments, while a single vial suits a pilot run.

General Laboratory Handling

These are general principles for handling lyophilized peptides. The label and your own procedures take priority over them.

• Lyophilized peptides are generally far more stable than peptides in solution, so keep material dry until it is needed.
• Store sealed vials cold and away from light and moisture.
• Let a cold vial reach room temperature before opening it, so that condensation does not form on the powder.
• Divide reconstituted material into single-use aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Record the lot number, the date opened and the diluent used.

Checking Identity and Purity

Identity, purity and peptide content are separate questions. Mass spectrometry is typically used to confirm molecular mass, reversed-phase HPLC to assess purity, and amino acid analysis to measure peptide content. Our overview of analytical techniques in peptide research explains how these methods work and what each result can and cannot show.
