Quanta Pharma SS-31 50mg

Quanta Pharma SS-31 50mg (Elamipretide, also known as Bendavia or MTP-131) is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that has become one of the most exciting research compounds in mitochondrial medicine. SS-31 selectively binds to cardiolipin on the inner mitochondrial membrane, where research shows it stabilises mitochondrial structure and protects against oxidative damage. Supplied as 50mg of high-purity lyophilised powder at 99% purity, produced to pharmaceutical-grade standards by Quanta Pharma. Dispatched from UK stock for fast delivery.

Quanta Pharma SS-31 Research Applications

• Mitochondrial Targeting – Selectively binds cardiolipin on the inner mitochondrial membrane, concentrating exactly where it’s needed
• ATP Production Support – Research shows improved electron transport chain efficiency and enhanced ATP synthesis
• Reactive Oxygen Species Reduction – Studies demonstrate significant reduction in mitochondrial ROS and oxidative stress markers
• Cardiac Research Interest – Extensively researched in ischemia-reperfusion and heart failure models
• Age-Related Studies – Investigated in models of age-related muscle weakness and mitochondrial decline
• Ophthalmic Research – Studied in retinal and macular research protocols

How Quanta Pharma SS-31 Works

Quanta Pharma SS-31 belongs to the Szeto-Schiller peptide family, developed by researchers Hazel Szeto and Peter Schiller at Cornell University. Unlike most compounds that require active transport into mitochondria, SS-31 uses a unique aromatic-cationic sequence that allows it to concentrate 1,000 to 5,000 times more in the inner mitochondrial membrane than in the cytoplasm, entirely independent of membrane potential.

Once bound to cardiolipin, Quanta Pharma SS-31 is shown in research to stabilise the curvature of the inner mitochondrial membrane, optimise electron transport chain complex assembly, and reduce electron leak. This translates to more efficient ATP production and dramatically less oxidative damage. The compound’s selectivity for damaged mitochondria makes it particularly interesting in research contexts where mitochondrial dysfunction is central to the pathology being studied.

Quanta Pharma SS-31 vs MOTS-c

Both Quanta Pharma SS-31 and MOTS-c are peptides of significant interest in mitochondrial research, but they operate through fundamentally different mechanisms. MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that acts as a signalling molecule, influencing metabolic pathways such as AMPK activation. SS-31 works structurally, physically stabilising the mitochondrial membrane and protecting the electron transport chain from within. Researchers often view these as complementary rather than competing, with Quanta Pharma SS-31 being the choice when the research focus is on protecting mitochondrial structure and reducing oxidative damage.

Why Choose Quanta Pharma SS-31?

Peptide research demands purity and stability, and Quanta Pharma produces every batch to pharmaceutical-grade standards with strict quality control on synthesis and lyophilisation. Each vial contains 50mg of high-purity SS-31 verified at 99% purity, sealed under conditions that preserve peptide integrity. For researchers studying mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, or age-related decline, consistent peptide quality is essential for reproducible results. Quanta Pharma SS-31 delivers that consistency at accessible research pricing.

Storage and Reconstitution

Quanta Pharma SS-31 ships as lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder for maximum shelf stability. Store the unreconstituted vial in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate and use within the standard peptide research window. Reconstitution volumes are chosen by the researcher based on their study protocol and desired concentration per unit.
