Reconstituted Semax & Selank in hot car for ~2 hours; have I ruined the peptides?

Original post in this thread

SPACE_DRUGS · 4 points

I reconstituted Semax and Selank about a week ago. Prior to that, the Lyophilized vials were stored refrigerated for 6 months.

After reconstituting, I had been very careful about keeping them in the refrigerator until I spaced out today and left them in the bubble wrap in a hot car (not in direct sunlight, but easily ~80-90* F inside) for about 1.5 hours.

I am worried I may have destroyed the peptides, as I remember reading that they are very sensitive to heat and vibration once reconstituted.

@misteryouaresodumb

Do these go in the garbage pail or am I worrying too much?

I know the Lyophilized powder is very stable, but a quick google did not bring an answer about reconstituted peptide stability in heat.

There might be some degradation, but probably only a little bit. You are probably fine. It won't be dangerous anyway. It would just be amino acids and peptide fragments as the breakdown products.

German customs seized and destroyed my Semax/Selank order worth 240 $.

Most of our German customers use a reshipper in the EU when ordering peptides. We get regular powders into Germany no problem. However, sometimes they are weird with peptides. So usually German customers use a reshipper

You are going to want an antimicrobial in nasal sprays. Not using one is just asking for a bad time. If microbes grow in the spray, you will be spraying them right where they could potentially get past your blood brain b

Always keep peptide in the fridge, as that is where they are most stable. They are MORE stable as a lyophilized powder in the vial, and become LESS stable once you mix them with water. However, some smaller sequence pept

Four(-ish) questions about NA-Selank!

1) N-Acetyl Selank's anxiolytic mechanism is related to its ability to inhibit enkephaline-degrading ezymes. That increases the levels of your body's natural opioids. That inhibition modulates the dopaminergic system, an

I agree. It's fucked up. Trust me, I had to shut my fucking company down because of this. Ceretropic is no more because of the bullshit in this country. So nobody is more frustrated than me. I fought for years for this.

Those of you who have taken Noopept or Semax/Selank for longer than a couple weeks straight and then stopped, could you describe your experience after stopping?

Replying to musicman4534 · The range of effects is so interesting. /u/MisterYouAreSoDumb has expressed interest in finding why there is such a range of effects with compounds such as Semax; I hope he stumble
