Important notice
This product is for laboratory and research use only. It is not for human or veterinary use. By ordering, you confirm it will be used only for in-vitro research.
Reconstitution required
This peptide ships freeze-dried and needs a diluent such as bacteriostatic water before use. Bacteriostatic water is sold separately.
Description
About KPV
KPV is a tripeptide, lysine–proline–valine, matching the last three amino acids (positions 11 to 13) of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH).
α-MSH is a melanocortin hormone with roles in pigmentation and in damping inflammation. In laboratory models, KPV has been reported to retain much of the parent hormone’s anti-inflammatory activity. It has been investigated in cell and animal models of inflammation, including models of intestinal inflammation, where studies have looked at NF-κB signalling and at uptake of the tripeptide by PepT1, a peptide transporter in the gut lining.
Form and storage
Supplied as a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed vial. Keep unopened vials cold, dry and out of direct light: refrigerated for short periods, frozen for longer storage. Our guide to storing lyophilised peptides summarises the published stability research.
For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.

1Research use only
KPV is supplied for in-vitro and laboratory research. It is not a medicine, food, supplement or cosmetic, and is not for human or veterinary use. Handle it under your institution's safety procedures, with suitable protective equipment, in a properly equipped laboratory.
2Lyophilised peptides in transit
Freeze-dried peptides travel as a dry solid in a sealed vial, which is far more robust than a solution. When the parcel arrives, move the vials to cold storage, away from light and moisture.
Frequently asked
Why does the vial look almost empty?
A few milligrams of freeze-dried peptide is a very small amount of solid. It often dries as a thin film or small cake on the base or wall of the vial, which is easy to miss. It dissolves once the vial is reconstituted.
Is bacteriostatic water included?
No. Diluent is sold separately, and the peptide calculator works out concentration and draw volume for the amount of water you add.
