what is selank?

Selank is a synthetic seven-amino-acid peptide derived from the tetrapeptide tuftsin with a stabilizing Pro-Gly-Pro extension. Verve supplies it as a research compound for laboratory use only. It is catalogued under mind & sleep as a synthetic heptapeptide. Every batch is US-made, third-party tested, and shipped with batch-level documentation.

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide, a seven-amino-acid chain built from the endogenous immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro extension added to increase stability. Verve supplies it as a high-purity research compound for neuroscience and peptide-signaling research.

In the laboratory, Selank is studied as a model regulatory neuropeptide, including work on GABAergic and monoaminergic signaling, neurotrophic gene expression, and enzymatic degradation kinetics of Pro-Gly-Pro-stabilized sequences in cellular and pre-clinical systems. Verve's Selank is manufactured in the United States, third-party tested by HPLC to a 99%+ purity standard, and shipped with a batch-level certificate of analysis.

how pure is selank?

purity, third-party testing & the certificate of analysis

Every batch of verve Selankis synthesized and vial-filled in the United States and screened by an independent, accredited laboratory. Chromatographic purity and quantity are measured by HPLC-UV/VIS; where the panel includes them, endotoxin is screened by LAL and sterility by USP <71>, with the sterility result reported as no growth detected or as pending while the culture is still running. Products are manufactured to a 99%+ purity standard where stated.

That lab report is the certificate of analysis. Match the batch code printed on your vial to the row in our COA library and you're reading the exact report for the exact vial in your hand. This compound's current report covers lot 3548315, published 2026-05-27. Orders placed Monday–Friday ship by 2pm CT, free over $100, with damage protection in transit and full US tracking.
