BPC-157: Chemical Identity and Documentation
BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide containing 15 amino-acid residues. This reference explains its chemical identity and the documentation needed to evaluate a laboratory material. It makes no claims about health, recovery, performance, or clinical effects.
Chemical identity in the reference database
The US National Library of Medicine’s PubChem record identifies BPC-157 as compound CID 9941957 and gives the molecular formula C62H98N16O22, with a molecular weight of approximately 1419.5 g/mol.
These fields describe the reference molecule. They are not test results for an Astra Biolabs product. A molecular formula states the numbers of atoms in that reference structure; molecular weight is a property of that structure, not the amount in a vial.
What does “peptide” mean?
Peptides contain amino-acid residues connected by peptide bonds. A compound’s sequence and chemical form matter when identifying it. A name alone is not enough to confirm a sample’s composition.
Reading a 10mg listing
A milligram quantity on a listing is a label quantity. It is distinct from molecular weight, a chromatographic purity percentage, and a laboratory assay. Check the actual label and applicable documentation rather than treating these values as interchangeable.
Our HPLC and LC-MS guide explains identity, purity, and assay results. The COA checklist explains how to match a report to a batch.
Documentation status
Astra Biolabs does not currently offer a lab report for its BPC-157 listing. This page does not assert batch-specific identity verification, purity, sterility, or safety. Contact the company for clarification about any listing information.
