AICAR Peptide research-grade

Overview

AICAR Peptide is supplied as a research-grade catalog material for controlled laboratory investigation.

Laboratories choose this item when protocols need clear identification, consistent labeling, and documentation suitable for reproducible experimental workflows.

Catalog packaging and research-use labeling help purchasing and bench teams keep procurement records aligned with the physical vial.

Research Context for AICAR Peptide

Work involving AICAR Peptide typically focuses on in vitro systems, assay development, and mechanistic model studies.

Teams confirm lot details before setup so conditions stay traceable across repeats and collaborative sites.

Published literature can inform starting ranges for related experimental designs. Each laboratory should still validate performance with its own instruments, plates, and detection chemistry.

Pilot runs are useful before committing larger plate sets, especially when detection chemistry or incubation windows are being optimized.

Documented Attributes

Key catalog attributes for this material include:

  • Research-grade material intended for laboratory investigation only
  • Catalog labeling aligned with research procurement channels
  • Suitable for method development and comparative assay workflows
  • Documentation packages available where provided for the listed lot

Laboratory Handling Notes

Receiving and Identity Checks

Before opening a vial of AICAR Peptide, confirm the physical label against the purchase order and packing list.

Retain outer packaging until identity checks are complete, and report damaged seals to purchasing before experimental work continues.

Reconstitution and Aliquoting

Handle this material according to institutional SOPs for weighing, reconstitution, aliquoting, and storage.

Record lot identifiers in laboratory notebooks before reconstitution. Verify solvent compatibility and storage temperature against your validated process.

Prepare assay buffers and consumables before opening the vial to reduce hold time. Keep unused aliquots labeled with date, solvent, and concentration for later repeats.

Chain of Custody

Keep chain-of-custody notes with inventory checks when material moves between freezers or benches.

Use dedicated spatulas and clean balances to avoid cross-contamination between catalog items. Schedule thaw cycles intentionally rather than repeated freeze-thaw of the same aliquot.

Secondary containment trays reduce spill risk during multi-step reconstitution. Cold-chain interruptions should be noted even when the vial remains sealed.

Why Laboratories Source AICAR Peptide

Procurement and research teams often select this catalog item because it supports:

  • Clear research-use labeling for compliance-aligned purchasing
  • Consistent product identification across multi-lot studies
  • Fit for reference, screening, and mechanistic laboratory models
  • Straightforward catalog support for planning and documentation

Study Planning and Quality Documentation

Before starting experimental work with AICAR Peptide, review any COA or quality files provided with the shipment.

Align your protocol with institutional research requirements and keep use within the labeled research context.

File catalog documentation with the study records at receipt. These steps help keep experiments comparable over time when using AICAR Peptide in sequential study phases.

Method Development Tips

Method development often begins with small pilot plates before larger screening panels.

Document buffer lots, incubation times, and detection settings alongside the material lot number.

If results diverge from historical baselines, re-check reconstitution volume and storage history first. Shared equipment logs help explain variance when multiple operators run the same protocol.

Inventory and Training

Update digital inventory immediately after opening a new lot of AICAR Peptide.

Training new staff on labeling conventions reduces mix-ups across similar catalog SKUs. When transferring methods between sites, share both the written SOP and the lot metadata package.

Dispose of residual solutions according to institutional chemical hygiene rules. Do not repurpose research materials for any non-laboratory application.

Periodic inventory reconciliation keeps expired or depleted lots from entering active workflows. For related catalog options, browse adjacent research categories on this site after confirming your assay needs.

Dimensions 9 × 7 × .5 in
Size: No selection

50 mg, 100 mg

Keep lyophilized peptides sealed in their original vial, protected from light and humidity, and store at -4°F or colder for optimal long-term stability in research settings; short-term refrigeration at around 39°F suffices for immediate use within weeks, though freezer storage maximizes integrity across extended research timelines.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AICAR peptide?

AICAR (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is a synthetic compound that acts as an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator. It is studied in research laboratories for its role in cellular energy regulation and metabolic signaling pathways.

What is AICAR used for in research?

AICAR is used in research laboratories to investigate AMPK activation, energy metabolism, and cellular signaling mechanisms. It is not approved for human use.

Is AICAR Peptide approved or intended for human use?

No. AICAR is strictly intended for research purposes only and is not approved by the FDA for human use.

No. AICAR is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for any medical, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.

In what form is AICAR supplied?

AICAR is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder for use in controlled research laboratories.

How should AICAR be stored?

Store sealed, lyophilized peptides protected from light and humidity at -4°F or colder; refrigeration (~39°F) is suitable for short-term use.

What vial sizes are available for AICAR?

AICAR is available in multiple vial sizes (e.g., 50mg, 100mg).
