Research Profile

  • Long-acting amylin analogue
  • Amylin / calcitonin receptor activity
  • Synthetic peptide
  • Third-party purity tested
  • Research use only

Cagrilintide is a long-acting synthetic analogue of amylin, characterised in the literature for its activity at amylin and calcitonin receptors. Supplied as lyophilised powder for in-vitro research use only.

The above describes how this compound is characterised in the published peer-reviewed literature. It is not a claim about effects in humans.

Laboratory Handling

Cagrilintide is supplied as a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed glass vial. For laboratory reconstitution, add the desired volume of diluent (typically bacteriostatic water) slowly down the side wall of the vial. Swirl gently until fully dissolved - do not vortex or shake. Store reconstituted solutions at 2–8 °C and use within 4–6 weeks.

Use our Reconstitution Volume Calculator to compute the resulting mg/ml concentration.

Purity & Verification

Every batch of Cagrilintide we supply is independently HPLC-verified by Janoshik Analytical. Where a Janoshik report has been issued for the current batch it is supplied with the order and carries a unique verification key that can be authenticated against Janoshik's records. Reported purity is consistently above 99%.
