Description

Peptide YY, Porcine is a 36-amino acid peptide hormone, also known as Peptide YY (3-36), that plays a critical role in the regulation of appetite and gastrointestinal motility. Its primary value lies in its use as a high-purity reference standard and active ingredient for advanced life science research and pharmaceutical development. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the fields of metabolic disorder studies, obesity research, and gastrointestinal pharmacology, where precise biological activity and batch-to-batch consistency are paramount.

Application

• Biomedical Research: Used as a critical reference standard in studies investigating the Y2 receptor pathway, satiety signaling, and gut-brain axis communication.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) or intermediate in the development of novel therapeutics for obesity, diabetes, and related metabolic syndromes.
• In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD): Employed in the calibration and validation of immunoassay kits and diagnostic platforms designed to measure PYY levels in biological samples.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Fundamental tool for university and institutional labs conducting preclinical studies on gastrointestinal hormones and their physiological effects.
• Biotech R&D: Integral component in drug discovery pipelines focused on G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and peptide-based therapeutics.

Quality Control

Every batch of Peptide YY, Porcine is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We guarantee high purity and consistent biological activity, supported by comprehensive analytical documentation. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing purity (by HPLC), peptide content, amino acid analysis, and mass spectrometry (MS) confirmation. Our quality commitment aligns with standards expected for research-grade and cGMP-grade materials.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store desiccated at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a dry environment before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake.
