SS-31-10mg

SS‑31 (also known as Elamipretide) is a synthetic mitochondria‑targeting tetrapeptide supplied as a high‑purity lyophilised powder for controlled laboratory research. It is widely used in scientific environments investigating mitochondrial function, oxidative stress models, cardiolipin interactions, and cellular bioenergetics.

Its unique sequence allows researchers to explore peptide localisation within the inner mitochondrial membrane, making SS‑31 a valuable tool for studies focused on energy production, mitochondrial stability, and peptide‑mediated cellular protection pathways.
