Description
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide based on the immune peptide tuftsin. It's studied mainly as an anxiolytic research peptide and for its effects on cognition.
Mechanism
Selank acts on several pathways tied to anxiety, including the opioid system, and in research it has been shown to modulate the activity of other anxiolytic compounds (Seredenin et al., 2012). Its anxiolytic and cognitive effects were examined by Kasian et al. (2017) and Volkova et al. (2018).
Research Applications
- Anxiolytic mechanism research (Kasian et al., 2017)
- Opioid-system and peptide interactions (Seredenin et al., 2012)
- Cognition and stress-response models (Volkova et al., 2018)
- Tuftsin-derived peptide pharmacology
Product Specifications

Verification
Storage & Handling
Storage
Selank is supplied as a lyophilized powder. Keep it sealed, dry, and away from light until reconstitution.
Reconstitution
Let the vial reach room temperature before opening, then add solvent slowly down the vial wall — do not shake.
Stability
Lyophilized material is stable when frozen. Once reconstituted, keep it cold and minimise handling to preserve integrity.
Research Overview
Selank is a synthetic peptide compound used in laboratory research settings. Researchers studying cognitive function and neuroprotection use this compound to investigate cellular signaling pathways, receptor binding affinities, and structure-activity relationships. Each batch is manufactured under controlled conditions and verified through HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis to ensure consistency across experimental replicates.
