What is Semax?
Semax is a chain of seven amino acids. Four of them are copied from a natural human hormone called ACTH, and the other three are added on the end to slow the chain being broken down. It came out of a Russian research program in Moscow and almost all the published work on it is Russian. It has been studied in rats and in rat brain cells, and in people recovering from an interruption of blood flow to the brain.

Semax Research & Reference
What Semax does in published studies, and how to work with it in the laboratory, are covered in full on two dedicated pages rather than summarised here, so neither the evidence nor the handling detail is cut short.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Semax third-party tested for purity?+−
Yes. Every batch of Semax is tested by an independent third-party laboratory using HPLC and MS-UPLC, confirming purity and mass identity before the batch is released. Pure Peptides does not test its own material.
Can I see the Certificate of Analysis before buying?+−
Yes. The Certificate of Analysis for the batch currently in stock can be viewed and downloaded directly on this page, before you place an order. Each certificate states the batch number, the measured purity, and the date of analysis, and can be verified independently with the issuing laboratory using the report number it carries.
What does "Research Use Only" mean?+−
It means Semax is supplied for in-vitro laboratory research and for no other purpose, and must not be administered to humans or animals. Semax is legal to purchase in the United States for in vitro and non-clinical laboratory research. It carries no FDA or MHRA marketing authorisation. Semax is not a scheduled substance under the Controlled Substances Act. Sold strictly for qualified research use, not human or veterinary administration.
How is Semax shipped and stored?+−
Semax ships from US stock with cold-chain packaging and full tracking; orders placed before noon EST on business days are typically dispatched the same business day. On arrival, store the lyophilized powder at -20°C or below, dry and protected from light.
How stable is Semax after administration?+−
Published work in rats reports rapid enzymatic degradation. Two minutes after an intranasal dose, about 80% of the labeled material recovered from brain was intact Semax and the remainder was metabolites; across biological samples the tripeptide Pro-Gly-Pro predominates.
Is Semax the same as ADAMAX?+−
No. ADAMAX is this heptapeptide with an acetyl group added at one end and an adamantane group at the other. Those modifications make it a different compound, and no published study has measured what they change. Research findings for Semax are not findings for ADAMAX.
