Buy Cartalax Peptide in Australia

Lyophilised powder, 20mg vial · Available to order, dispatched from Australia
$139.99

Buy Cartalax in Australia from Macropus Peptides in a sealed 20mg vial. It is a short-chain peptide bioregulator, reported as the three amino acid sequence alanine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid, and it comes from a line of research into small peptides that are thought to influence gene activity in specific tissues, in this case cartilage. It is studied mainly in cell culture work on gene expression, cell differentiation and cellular ageing. Each vial holds research-grade lyophilised powder, labelled with compound, strength, lot number and storage temperature, and every lot has a certificate of analysis available on request. The 20mg vial is priced and ready to order, and a single vial covers a full series of in-vitro experiments. Add bacteriostatic water to the same order and your parcel is dispatched from within Australia to any address in the country. For laboratory research only, to buyers aged 18 and over; not for human or veterinary use.

Buy Cartalax Australia: 20mg Research Peptide Vial

Macropus Peptides supplies this short peptide in a single 20mg vial, priced and ready to order, as research-grade lyophilised material. It sits in our longevity and cognitive range with the other short-chain bioregulators, and it is one of the smallest peptides we sell, which makes it simple to handle and reconstitute in the laboratory.

What is Cartalax peptide

Cartalax is a synthetic tripeptide, a chain of only three amino acids, reported as alanine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid, often written AED. It belongs to a family called peptide bioregulators. That research began in the 1970s and 1980s with extracts from individual animal tissues, which were found to contain very short peptides linked to the tissue they came from. Researchers later identified and synthesised the active sequences as di, tri and tetrapeptides, and this one is associated with cartilage and connective tissue. Its sequence is closely related to Epitalon, a four amino acid bioregulator that carries the same three residues plus a glycine at the end.

How the Cartalax bioregulator works in research

Most peptides act by binding a receptor on the cell surface. Short bioregulators are thought to work differently. Because they are so small, they are proposed to enter cells and reach the nucleus, where they may interact with DNA and the histone proteins that package it, changing how accessible particular genes are. In cell culture studies, short peptides of this kind have been linked to changes in the expression of genes involved in cell differentiation, protein synthesis and markers of cellular ageing. Laboratories use this tripeptide to study how such small molecules might influence gene activity in cartilage cells and fibroblasts, and to compare tissue-associated bioregulators with one another.

Cartalax peptide research: what the studies show

The evidence base is narrower than for the large, well-known research peptides, and it is best understood through reviews of the whole bioregulator field. A 2020 review in Stem Cell Reviews and Reports covered how short peptides are thought to influence cell differentiation, and a 2021 systematic review in Molecules examined the evidence that they regulate gene expression. Much of the underlying work comes from a single research school, and independent replication is still limited, so the compound is best treated as an exploratory research tool. The studies are listed in our Cartalax research studies library.

A sealed glass vial carries the tripeptide as dry white powder, printed with its name, 20mg fill, batch code and freezer temperature. Send us that batch code and we return the certificate, which lists the sequence and identity results for the lot. Store the sealed vial frozen and away from light until it is needed.

Cartalax 20mg$139.99$7.00 per mg

One fixed Australian dollar price applies to the 20mg vial, and it can be ordered straight away. Twenty milligrams of a three amino acid peptide is a large molar quantity, so a single vial goes a long way across cell culture experiments.

Cartalax 20mg: where to buy in Australia

We stock a single 20mg presentation, large enough for first experiments and for a longer assay series kept on one batch. Because the tripeptide dissolves readily in water, it can be made up at a high stock concentration and diluted into culture media as needed. Two millilitres of diluent makes a 10 mg per mL stock; double that volume halves the strength to 5 mg per mL.

Best place to buy Cartalax Australia

  • Research-grade tripeptide in a sealed 20mg vial at a fixed price
  • Lot-specific certificate of analysis, including identity data
  • Posted from local Australian stock with no international customs delay
  • Related bioregulators such as Epitalon available in the same order
  • Clear research-use terms and no claims about human use

How to buy Cartalax online

  • Add the 20mg vial to your cart
  • Include a diluent unless your lab already holds one
  • Add any related peptides for comparison work
  • Check out and confirm the purchase is for adult laboratory use
  • Record the batch code for your files and ask for the certificate

Cartalax reconstitution and calculator

Our online calculator works out the concentration for whatever volume you plan to add to this 20mg vial. Short peptides like this one dissolve quickly, so gentle swirling is enough and there is no need to shake the vial. Bacteriostatic water suits most work; for culture experiments sensitive to preservatives, some laboratories prefer sterile water and prepare only what they will use. Chill the dissolved peptide and portion it out so each aliquot is thawed or opened only once.

Is Cartalax available in Australia

Yes, for research. Australian laboratories can buy the tripeptide as bench material, and nothing else is offered. Because no ARTG entry exists for it, sale for human or veterinary use is ruled out. TGA scheduling can shift over time, so your organisation should check its Poisons Standard position first.

Cartalax for sale Australia wide

Parcels ship from Australian stock to addresses across the country, from capital cities to regional towns. Researchers exploring short-chain bioregulators often work with Epitalon, its four amino acid relative, and Thymalin, a thymus-associated bioregulator. For tissue repair research with a different mechanism, BPC-157 is listed in our recovery range, and the full longevity and cognitive range is listed alongside.
