The Vesugen Analysis is a targeted laboratory test designed to confirm the identity, determine the amount, and assess the peptide purity of Vesugen in lyophilised vials and raw active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) powders.
For lyophilised samples, results are reported in milligrams per vial together with peptide purity. Raw API powders can be evaluated using purity in % (m/m) together with peptide purity.
About Vesugen
Vesugen is a synthetic tripeptide with the amino acid sequence Lys-Glu-Asp (KED). It has been studied primarily in experimental research involving vascular endothelium and cellular processes associated with vascular ageing.
Key Features

- Results for lyophilised samples reported in mg per vial and peptide purity
- Alternative result format for raw API powders includes purity in % (m/m) and peptide purity
- Minimum sample amount of one whole unopened vial with lyophilisate
- Minimum sample amount of 30 mg for raw API powders
- Average turnaround time of 7 business days
Analysis Parameters
- Target compound: Vesugen
- Molecular weight: 390
- Sequence: Lys-Glu-Asp-OH
- Testing method: HPLC
- Minimum amount of target compound for evaluation: Less than 1/20 of the usual dosage per vial
- Result format for lyophilised samples: mg per vial and peptide purity
- Result format for raw API powders: Purity in % (m/m) and peptide purity
- Minimum sample amount for lyophilised samples: One whole unopened vial with lyophilisate

Important Notice
- This analysis is specifically intended for Vesugen. It does not automatically screen the sample for other peptides, related compounds, degradation products, contaminants, or undeclared substances.
- For lyophilised samples, one whole unopened vial containing lyophilisate is required.
- Raw API powder should be supplied as at least 30 mg in a sealed glass vial to protect the sample from moisture.
- The alternative result format for raw API powders includes both purity in % (m/m) and peptide purity.
