Vita SM5 5mg

Overview of Semaglutide SM5

Semaglutide is a synthetic analogue of human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), an incretin hormone naturally produced by intestinal L-cells in response to nutrient intake. It is engineered with specific amino acid modifications and a fatty acid side chain that extend its half-life to approximately one week via albumin binding — enabling weekly dosing in research protocols compared to native GLP-1’s ~2 minute half-life.

Each vial available from SteroidsCanada.ca contains 5mg of lyophilized Semaglutide SM5, manufactured to rigorous pharmaceutical-grade standards and independently verified for purity exceeding 99% via HPLC analysis. This makes it an ideal choice for qualified researchers and laboratory professionals seeking dependable, high-quality peptides for glp-1 receptor agonist research applications.

Mechanism of Action

Semaglutide binds to and activates GLP-1 receptors found in pancreatic beta cells, the gastrointestinal tract, and multiple regions of the central nervous system including the hypothalamus and brainstem. This activation enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion, suppresses inappropriate glucagon release, slows gastric emptying, and affects appetite-regulation centers — producing the metabolic effects extensively studied in research literature.

Reconstitution Guidelines

Semaglutide SM5 is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder that must be reconstituted with sterile bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) before use in research applications. The recommended reconstitution volume for this vial is 2mL of bacteriostatic water, which yields a concentration suitable for precise research dosing.

Reconstitution Best Practices

• Use sterile bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol preservative)
• Add diluent slowly along the vial wall — never directly onto the peptide cake
• Gently swirl to dissolve — never shake the vial vigorously
• Allow the peptide to fully dissolve before drawing any dose
• Store reconstituted vials at 2–8°C (refrigerator)
• Use reconstituted peptide within 28–60 days depending on specific research requirements
• Always use sterile technique when drawing from the reconstituted vial

Research Protocol Guidelines

Research protocols typically titrate from low starting concentrations (0.25mg weekly equivalent) up over 4-8 weeks to avoid receptor desensitization.

Typical Research Timeline

• Week 1-4: Dose titration phase — gradual receptor sensitization
• Week 5-8: Peak appetite and glucose effects in research
• Week 9-12: Sustained metabolic adaptation research phase
• Week 13-16: Long-term research protocol applications

Individual research results vary based on protocol design, specific research objectives, and research model characteristics. The above timeline represents commonly observed patterns in published research literature.

Research Stacking Protocols

In research applications, Semaglutide SM5 is often studied in combination with complementary research peptides to investigate pathway interactions. Common research combinations include:

• Semaglutide + Tirzepatide: Comparative GLP-1 research
• Semaglutide + BPC-157: GI tract research models
• Semaglutide + AOD 9604: Metabolic research protocols

Any research stacking protocol should be designed based on specific investigative objectives and informed by current scientific literature.
