Introducing Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) in a 10 mg concentration, a 28–amino acid neuropeptide belonging to the secretin/glucagon family. VIP is widely distributed in the central and peripheral nervous system and has been studied for its vasodilatory, neuroprotective, and immunomodulatory properties. Research suggests that VIP plays a significant role in smooth muscle relaxation, circadian rhythm regulation, and inflammatory response modulation.

Physical Form: Lyophilized Powder
Applications and Research Potential:
VIP is being investigated in experimental models for its potent vasodilatory activity and ability to modulate immune and inflammatory responses. It has been studied for its role in neuroprotection, pulmonary function, and gastrointestinal physiology. Researchers are particularly interested in VIP’s interaction with VPAC receptors, making it a key peptide for studies on inflammation, autoimmunity, and neurodegenerative disorders.
Handling and Storage Instructions:
VIP is provided as a lyophilized powder to maintain stability. Reconstitute under sterile conditions using bacteriostatic water. Store lyophilized peptide at –20 °C in a sealed, dry environment. After reconstitution, short-term storage at 2–8 °C is recommended. Always follow HSE laboratory protocols during handling.
Production and Quality Control:
Each batch of VIP is synthesized using solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) and undergoes rigorous quality control. Purity and identity are confirmed via HPLC and mass spectrometry, ensuring reproducibility and consistency across research studies.
Regulatory and Safety Notes:
VIP is intended solely for scientific research use and is not suitable for human or veterinary administration. Researchers must adhere to institutional safety practices and comply with regulatory frameworks, including MHRA guidelines where applicable.
