Semax + Selank Lab Testing & Purity Standards: HPLC, MS & Endotoxin

3 min read•Published 2025-09-06•Quality Peptide USA Research

A co-lyophilized research blend pairing Semax (ACTH 4-10 analog) with Selank (tuftsin analog). Both are widely studied neuropeptides in Russian and international neurochemistry literature.. This guide covers lab testing & purity for Semax + Selank — written for laboratory researchers sourcing US-synthesized peptides from Quality Peptide USA.

Purity by Reverse-Phase HPLC

Every batch of Semax + Selank is analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC using a C18 stationary phase and a water/acetonitrile gradient with 0.1% TFA. The release specification is ≥ 99% purity by area-under-curve at 220 nm. The chromatogram is included in the full certificate of analysis PDF available on the Semax + Selank product page.

Identity by Mass Spectrometry

Semax + Selank identity is confirmed by electrospray ionization (ESI) or MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The observed molecular ion is compared against the calculated mass (available on the certificate of analysis) and must match within 1 Da to pass release. Sequence-level confirmation is performed on representative lots through MS/MS fragmentation.

Endotoxin and Bioburden

Every batch is screened with the Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay. Release specification: < 0.10 EU/mg. Bioburden is verified by membrane filtration with target < 1 CFU per vial. These thresholds matter for cell-culture work where endotoxin contamination confounds inflammatory and proliferation readouts.

Water Content and Residual Solvents

Karl Fischer titration verifies water content below 5%, ensuring the lyophilized cake is fully dry. Residual organic solvent screening (gas chromatography) confirms acetonitrile and TFA residuals are within USP <467> Class 3 limits. This is one of the most overlooked QC steps when sourcing peptides from overseas suppliers — but it directly influences downstream cell viability.
