Description
SS-31 (Elamipretide) 50mg | Mitochondria-Targeted Tetrapeptide – Research Peptide
SS-31, also known as elamipretide, is a synthetic aromatic-cationic tetrapeptide designed to associate selectively with the inner mitochondrial membrane through an alternating aromatic and basic residue motif.
Research has characterized its binding affinity for cardiolipin, a phospholipid unique to the inner mitochondrial membrane, and the resulting effects on cristae architecture, electron transport efficiency and reactive oxygen species production in isolated mitochondria.
Common research applications: mitochondrial bioenergetics research, cardiolipin interaction studies, and oxidative stress models.
This 50mg vial offers five times the quantity of our standard 10mg vial for laboratories running larger-scale or extended research programs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is SS-31?
SS-31, also called elamipretide, is a synthetic aromatic-cationic tetrapeptide that concentrates in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
What is SS-31 studied for?
Research applications include cardiolipin binding, cristae architecture, electron transport efficiency and reactive oxygen species production. All work is laboratory research only.
How does the 50mg vial differ from the 10mg vial?
The compound is identical; the 50mg vial simply contains five times the material per vial for research programs that consume more per study.
