Neuro
Semax & Selank
Two synthetic regulatory peptides studied in cognition, stress-response, and neuroprotection research.
- Classification
- Synthetic peptides: ACTH(4-10) analog and tuftsin analog
- Supplied form
- Lyophilized combination vial
- Storage
- Lyophilized powder is typically stored refrigerated or frozen and protected from light. Once reconstituted, solutions are generally kept refrigerated and handled under standard laboratory practice.
- Solubility
- Both peptides are water soluble.
What Semax and Selank are
Semax is an analog of the ACTH(4-10) fragment without corticotropic activity. Selank is a synthetic analog of the immunomodulatory peptide tuftsin. Both originate from Russian peptide research programmes.
Research context
Literature covers BDNF expression, memory and attention models for Semax, and anxiety, stress-response, and GABAergic signalling models for Selank.
Handling in the laboratory
Supplied as a single 10mg combination vial; concentration math applies to the vial total.
Concentration reference
Working concentration is determined solely by the solvent volume added to the vial. The Lucent Life reconstitution calculator converts vial strength and solvent volume into mg/mL and U-100 syringe units. It performs unit math only and does not recommend any dosing, administration, or frequency.

Frequently asked
Why are they sold together?
The two peptides are commonly studied side by side in cognition and stress-response research, so the catalog lists them as one combination vial.
