Tirzepatide

About Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a synthetic 39-amino-acid peptide that acts as a dual agonist at both the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor and the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor. That dual activity is what separates it from single-incretin research peptides and is the reason it is one of the most widely studied incretin compounds in current metabolic literature.

Biovanta Research supplies tirzepatide as a lyophilised powder in eight vial strengths, from a 5mg vial suited to short pilot work up to a 60mg vial for extended or multi-arm study designs. Buying the larger vial sizes lowers the cost per milligram considerably, which is why most UK laboratories ordering repeat batches move up the range.

Each batch is assayed by Janoshik Analytical, an independent laboratory, and the resulting certificate of analysis is published so that purity and identity can be checked before the vial is opened. Every order is dispatched from the UK on a tracked service, with orders placed before 1:30pm on a working day going out the same day.

Specifications

Research areas

• Incretin receptor signalling and cross-talk between GIP and GLP-1 pathways
• Glucose-dependent insulin secretion models
• Comparative in-vitro potency work against single-agonist peptides
• Receptor binding, stability and formulation studies

Storage and handling

• Shipped as a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed glass vial with a crimped cap.
• Store the unopened vial in a cool, dark place; for long-term laboratory storage keep at -20°C.
• Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water inside a clean workspace, directing the stream against the vial wall rather than onto the powder.
• Once reconstituted, refrigerate at 2-8°C, protect from light and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Record batch and SKU details against your experimental notes so results can be traced back to the published certificate of analysis.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tirzepatide third-party tested?

Yes. Every batch of Tirzepatide is sent to Janoshik Analytical for independent purity and identity testing, and the certificate of analysis is published on our Certificates of Analysis page.

How quickly is Tirzepatide dispatched in the UK?

Orders placed before 1:30pm Monday to Friday are dispatched the same working day on a tracked service. We do not dispatch at weekends or on UK public holidays.

What is Tirzepatide supplied for?

Tirzepatide is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research by qualified persons aged 21 or over. It is not a medicine and is not for human or veterinary use.
