Tesamorelin FAQ
What is Tesamorelin (TH9507)?
Tesamorelin, research code TH9507, is a synthetic 44-amino-acid analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). It is supplied as a lyophilized powder for in-vitro laboratory research use only.
What purity does PeptideX1 Tesamorelin meet?
Each batch is ≥99% purity by HPLC, verified per batch on the accompanying Certificate of Analysis.
Is a Certificate of Analysis included?
Yes. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is included with every order.
How is it shipped and stored?
It ships lyophilized, sealed and desiccated. Store the sealed vial at -20°C and protect it from light.
How does tesamorelin differ from GLP-1 peptides like semaglutide?
Tesamorelin is a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog studied for its role in the GH and IGF-1 axis, a different mechanism from GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide (Ozempic). It is offered strictly as a research material and is not for human use or weight management.
Is this product for human use?
No. It is sold strictly for in-vitro laboratory research use only. It is not for human or veterinary use.
