Buy Thymosin Alpha-1 Starter Kit in Australia
Buy the Thymosin Alpha-1 starter kit in Australia from Macropus Peptides. The kit holds a 5mg vial of lyophilised Thymosin Alpha-1, a 3 mL vial of bacteriostatic water, ten 0.5 mL insulin syringes and twenty alcohol swabs, so a laboratory can reconstitute and sample its first stock from one delivery. The peptide is a 28 amino acid, N-terminally acetylated fragment first isolated from calf thymus tissue and studied in immune cell signalling research. The kit is the fixed-price way to order the 5mg strength, which is otherwise quoted on request, and the 10mg vial remains available for bigger studies. Each vial carries a lot number linked to a certificate of analysis on request. Order TA1 online for dispatch from Australia to any address in the country, strictly for in-vitro research by buyers aged 18 and over, not for human or veterinary use.

Buy Thymosin Alpha-1 Starter Kit Australia: 5mg with Diluent
Immune signalling labs wanted a smaller way into this thymic peptide than the 10mg vial, so the 5mg kit bundles vial, preserved water, syringes and swabs.
What TA1 is: identity and origin
Its source was thymosin fraction 5, a crude preparation from calf thymus, and its sequence was solved in 1977. The chain runs to 28 residues, capped by an acetylated serine at the N-terminus. Later work showed that it is cut from a larger precursor, prothymosin alpha, found in many tissues rather than only the thymus. In laboratory work it is used to study T cell maturation and innate immune signalling. The Thymosin Alpha-1 vial listing covers the 10mg size.
TA1 in published research
PNAS carried both the 1977 isolation paper and, in 1984, the description of prothymosin alpha as the major immunoreactive form in rat thymus. A 2004 paper in Blood examined how the peptide activates dendritic cells through toll-like receptor signalling in a mouse fungal challenge model. The Thymosin Alpha-1 research studies library lists each paper.
TA1 kit specifications for each order
| Specification | Detail |

| Kit | Thymosin Alpha-1 starter kit |
| Amount | starter kit |
| Form | Research kit |

- Peptide: 5mg, freeze-dried, in a crimp-sealed vial
- Diluent: 3 mL bacteriostatic water
- Syringes: ten, each 0.5 mL
- Swabs: twenty alcohol swabs
- Label: compound, 5mg fill, lot number, storage temperature
Reconstituting 5mg of TA1
With 1 mL of water the stock is 5 mg per mL; with 2 mL, 2.5 mg per mL; with the entire 3 mL, about 1.67 mg per mL. Each supplied syringe is a 0.5 mL barrel with graduations every 0.01 mL, fifty in all, which is the unit of volume to record in lab notes. A 10mL bacteriostatic water vial can ride in the same parcel.

A parts comparison is not possible here, because the stand-alone 5mg vial is currently quoted on request. What the kit offers is a set price for the 5mg fill plus everything needed to prepare it.
TA1 storage before and after mixing
Unopened, the thymic peptide is kept frozen at -20 °C with its carton lid shut. Once dissolved, the stock is chilled to between 2 and 8 °C. Water and consumables need nothing more than a clean, dry shelf.
Is Thymosin Alpha-1 available in Australia
Only as research material. No ARTG listing exists for this compound, so every kit we send is destined for in-vitro experiments. The TGA's Poisons Standard governs how it is scheduled.
Buy Thymosin Alpha-1 online, shipped from within Australia
Orders travel from local Australian stock to metro and country addresses Australia wide. For a second immune-signalling compound, look at the KPV starter kit; wider choices sit in kits and stacks.
