5mg vial · Lyophilized powder
Lys-Pro-Val tripeptide — the C-terminal fragment of alpha-MSH (11-13), studied for anti-inflammatory and mucosal-healing effects without the pigmentary action of full-length alpha-MSH.
Relative emphasis across the research domains this compound is most studied for.
Sourced direct from a vetted GMP-aligned manufacturer. No re-labels, no middle layers.
View brandDetailed compound information
KPV is the three-amino-acid C-terminal tail of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH 11-13). Unlike full-length α-MSH, KPV does not engage MC1R-driven pigmentation, but research models show it retains α-MSH's anti-inflammatory activity — suppressing NF-κB signaling, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production, and accelerating mucosal repair in models of colitis, dermatitis, and wound healing. Its small size allows oral, topical, and enteric-coated research formulations.

Reference material & peer-reviewed citations
Research peptides are chemical reagents for laboratory analysis. Regulations vary by jurisdiction — it is the buyer's responsibility to ensure compliance with local laws. See our Terms & Conditions page for the full regulatory framework across the EU, UK, US, Switzerland, Thailand, and other major markets.
Lyophilized (unreconstituted) peptides should be stored at -20°C for long-term storage or 2-8°C (refrigerated) for short-term use. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, store at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles — aliquot into smaller portions if needed.
For laboratory research use only. Not for human consumption, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, or in-vivo administration. By purchasing you confirm you are a qualified researcher or institution.
Reconstitute the 5mg vial with 2mL bacteriostatic water → 2.5 mg/mL. On a U-100 insulin syringe, 20 IU = 0.2 mL = 500 mcg. Oral/sublingual and topical research protocols use unreconstituted or water-dissolved powder at custom concentrations.
Gently inject bacteriostatic water (bacteriostatic water) along the inside wall of the vial — do not spray directly onto the powder. Let it dissolve naturally or gently swirl. Never shake vigorously. Standard reconstitution: add the desired volume of bacteriostatic water based on your concentration needs. For example, 5mg peptide + 2.5ml bacteriostatic water = 2mg/ml concentration.
Yes. Every batch undergoes independent third-party HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) and mass spectrometry analysis. We provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) for each product, verifying identity, purity (≥99%), and the absence of contaminants. COA documents are available for download on each product page.
Yes. We offer temperature-controlled shipping to most EU and Asian countries. Standard EU delivery is 24-48 hours. International orders are shipped in discreet, professional packaging with cold-chain protection where required. Customs documentation and regulatory paperwork are provided as needed.
