Research brief · Growth Hormone
Sermorelin
Native GHRH(1-29) fragment, baseline reference in GH research.
Class
GHRH (1-29) analogue
Half-life
~10–20 min
Studied in
Baseline somatotropic studies.
What it is
Sermorelin is the native GHRH(1-29) fragment, the minimal sequence required for full GHRH receptor activation. It serves as a baseline reference in somatotropic research.
Mechanism studied
Native GHRH fragment stimulating pituitary GH release.
Research notes
- Very short half-life limits use to acute-exposure protocols.
Before sourcing any material
- Confirm a lot-matched third-party certificate of analysis (HPLC purity and mass-spectrometry identity).
- Check the stated peptide content per vial, not just the gross vial mass.
- Plan reconstitution volumes first so the vial size matches your protocol.
- Verify what is lawful in your jurisdiction — these are in-vitro research reagents, not medicines.
