BPC-157 5mg / 10mg

BPC-157 from Biotech Peptides is a 15-amino-acid peptide, sold in the 5mg and 10mg sizes of freeze-dried powder. You pay $52 for 5mg and $94 for 10mg and shipping costs nothing, whether the order goes across the US or overseas. Our label says it plainly: synthesized and lyophilized in the USA. The gallery above includes the certificate of analysis for the current lot.

What is BPC-157?

It is a 15-amino-acid peptide based on a fragment of body protection compound, a protein first found in gastric juice. It’s one of the most widely studied research peptides, almost entirely in rodents.

It isn’t an approved drug in the US or Europe, and it’s on the WADA prohibited list.

BPC-157 in published research

Most of the work comes from Predrag Sikiric’s group at the University of Zagreb. Their rodent studies report faster healing of tendon, ligament, muscle and gut injuries, and Mikus and colleagues described improved burn wound healing in mice.

Chang and colleagues reported in 2011 that the peptide raised growth hormone receptor expression in rat tendon fibroblasts. Controlled human data are very limited.

How BPC-157 works

Nobody has pinned down a single receptor for the peptide. Lab studies point to several pathways: it raises VEGF receptor expression, which feeds blood vessel growth, it interacts with the nitric oxide system, and it increases growth hormone receptor levels in tendon cells.

In cell culture it helped fibroblasts move and spread, which is part of how tissue closes a wound. Those effects are why it shows up so often in tendon, ligament and gut repair models.

COA and lab reports

We show the paperwork instead of describing it. Open the gallery and you’ll find the COA with its lot number and test table, an HPLC trace for purity and a mass spec plot for identity.

If you need the PDF for a lab notebook or an ethics file, send us the order number and we’ll email it.

BPC-157 reconstitution and storage

For the 5mg size, here’s the concentration you get with common volumes of bacteriostatic water:

• 1mL of water: 5mg per mL
• 2mL of water: 2.5mg per mL
• 3mL of water: 1.67mg per mL

Let the vial warm to room temperature first. Run the water slowly down the side of the glass, then swirl or roll it until the powder is gone. Don’t shake it; foam is a sign of damaged peptide.

Dry vials last longest frozen at -20°C. Reconstituted solution goes in the fridge and is best used within four weeks or so.

Ordering enough for a study

Map out the doses per group, multiply by the number of days, and add a margin. It’s cheaper to order one extra vial at the start than to restart a study.

Choosing a BPC-157 size

Pick the size from the menu above the cart button. The larger vial costs less per milligram:

• 5mg vial: $52, about $10.40 per mg
• 10mg vial: $94, about $9.40 per mg

Start small if you’re testing a protocol. Go large when the plan is fixed and you want the lower price per milligram.

Where BPC-157 fits

It is the 15-amino-acid repair peptide with the largest body of rodent research. The compounds it’s usually weighed against:

• TB-500 is the 43-amino-acid actin-binding protein, studied for cell movement and wound repair
• KPV is a three-amino-acid alpha-MSH fragment studied for calming inflammation
• ARA-290 is an 11-amino-acid peptide from erythropoietin that protects tissue without raising red cells
• B7-33 is a relaxin-2 fragment studied for fibrosis
• GHK-Cu is the copper-binding tripeptide studied for collagen and skin repair

Each covers a different step of repair, from new blood vessels and cell movement to inflammation, fibrosis and matrix rebuilding. All of them are on our BPC-157 and recovery peptides page.
