PEG-MGF 100MG — PEGylated Mechano Growth Factor
PEG-MGF is mechano growth factor — a splice variant of insulin-like growth factor 1 expressed in mechanically loaded muscle — with a polyethylene glycol chain covalently attached. PEGylation increases the effective molecular size, which is the standard approach for slowing clearance of a short peptide in study systems.

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.
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 and the full glossary entry on PEGylation.
