IGF-1 LR3 100MG — Long R3 IGF-1 Analog
IGF-1 LR3 (Long R3 IGF-1) is an 83-residue analog of insulin-like growth factor 1: the native 70-residue chain with an arginine substituted for glutamic acid at position 3 and a 13-residue N-terminal extension. Both changes reduce binding to IGF binding proteins.

Storage and handling
- Dry powder: store at −20 °C, sealed, protected from light and moisture.
- Bring the sealed vial to room temperature before opening — lyophilized powder is hygroscopic and draws moisture onto a cold surface.
- After reconstitution: refrigerate at 2-8 °C, protect from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- A protein-length peptide with disulfide bonds — avoid reducing agents and vigorous agitation, both of which promote misfolding and aggregation.
What you need to reconstitute it
Material is supplied dry and has to be brought into solution before use. Bacteriostatic Water 20 mL is the standard solvent and is sold separately — step-by-step procedure in the reconstitution guide, and a comparison of solvents in bacteriostatic water vs sterile water.
Documentation
Every batch is third-party tested: HPLC for chromatographic purity, mass spectrometry for identity. New to batch documents? See how to read a COA, what 99% purity actually means and net peptide content vs gross weight.
