Semax is a synthetic peptide derived from a fragment of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone). It is studied in neuropeptide and neurotrophin research and supplied for research use only.
What Semax is
Semax is based on a short fragment of ACTH, modified for stability. It is classed among neuropeptides because it is studied for its activity in the nervous system.
How it is studied
In the laboratory, Semax is studied in neuropeptide and neurotrophin research, often alongside Selank. As a research peptide, it is a study tool and is not approved or intended for human use.
What to look for
A research-grade Semax should ship with a batch-specific certificate of analysis. For a comparison, see Semax vs. Selank.

A note on research use
The peptides supplied by Axis Peptide Labs are reference compounds for laboratory and research use only. They are intended for qualified researchers working in academic, institutional, and analytical settings. They are not drugs, foods, cosmetics, or medical products, and they are not intended for human or veterinary consumption. Documented identity and documented purity are what matter most when sourcing a compound, both of which are published on the Axis certificates of analysis page.
