DSIP consists of nine amino acid residues in the sequence WAGGDASGE. Its tryptophan residue provides a useful feature for spectroscopic studies of peptide structure and molecular interactions.
Laboratory research examines DSIP’s structure in solution, interactions with lipid membranes, and effects on neuronal signaling in experimental models. Its molecular conformation can change with the surrounding environment, making solvent and assay conditions relevant to experimental design.

-20°C in the sealed vial, protected from light and moisture
Storage and Handling
Store the lyophilized compound at -20°C in the sealed vial, protected from light and moisture.
After reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C and use promptly; for longer holds, aliquot and store at -20°C to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Allow the vial to reach ambient temperature before opening so condensation does not enter the powder.
Maintain aseptic handling to preserve compound integrity.
Lyophilized Format
This compound ships in lyophilized (freeze-dried) form. Freeze-drying supports long-term storage stability and preserves compound integrity. No fillers are added.
Research Use Disclaimer
DSIP is supplied for research use only. This material is not supplied as a drug, food, cosmetic, or dietary supplement. By purchasing, the buyer confirms the material will be used solely for in vitro research.
Research Overview
Spectroscopic studies of DSIP used nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism, infrared spectroscopy, and fluorescence to examine its structure in solution. The findings described an equilibrium between folded and unordered conformations.[1] Further work examined how lipid membranes influence peptide conformation.[2]
In rat neuronal preparations, DSIP altered GABA-activated currents and NMDA-associated responses. Synaptosome experiments also measured changes in calcium uptake.[3] These findings concern experimental signaling responses and do not establish a selective DSIP-specific receptor.
Materials research has examined DSIP adsorption and release from charged polymer matrices. Retention and release differed with matrix charge and the surrounding solution.[4] These observations support laboratory studies of peptide–material interactions; they do not establish performance for every formulation.
Possible in vitro research applications include the following.

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a document that verifies a compound’s identity, purity and quality through independent laboratory testing. Every compound from BioLongevity Labs is third-party tested, and its COA is published here, so researchers can review the testing record before a compound enters a protocol.
Each COA reports results from third-party laboratory analysis, including:
Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) for purity, measured against a 98% or 99% specification depending on the compound
Mass identification for molecular confirmation and content quantitation
Endotoxin testing by Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) or recombinant Factor C (rFC) assay, depending on the laboratory
Visual and physical characterization of the finished material
How to Verify a COA Independently
You can check every certificate against the issuing laboratory’s own records, not just the copy hosted here. Verification does not depend on BioLongevity Labs.
AV Analytics certificates carry a search code. Scan the QR code on the certificate to open the laboratory’s verification page, or enter the search code at avanalytical.com/coa-search to pull the official record.
BioRegen reports of analysis carry a Report ID and a Validation Key. Scan the QR code on the certificate to open the official record, or quote both identifiers when you contact the laboratory at the address printed on the report.
SafeCert Labs issued a number of earlier certificates. Each one carries a COA number and the signature of the reporting chemist. Quote that number when you ask the laboratory to confirm it.
Older certificates from other laboratories list their own verification details on the document.
When a batch is sent to more than one laboratory, each certificate resolves at its own issuing laboratory. A researcher can then check the results against two unrelated sources.
These COAs come from independent certified laboratories, not in-house testing. That gives researchers a verifiable record of molecular integrity for each compound. All compounds are supplied for research use only.
