SS-31 (elamipretide) is a synthetic mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide studied in research into cardiolipin interactions and mitochondrial-function pathways in experimental models.
SS-31 is a synthetic, cell-permeable tetrapeptide with the sequence D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH2, also known as elamipretide and MTP-131. It carries the molecular formula C32H49N9O5, a molecular weight of 639.8 g/mol, CAS number 736992-21-5 and PubChem CID 11764719. Kovalabs supplies it as a lyophilised solid for laboratory research only.
It is a defined small-molecule peptide used as a reference compound in non-clinical investigation. The material sold here is a research chemical supplied for laboratory use only. It is not a licensed medicine and must not be used as one.
SS-31 is not a controlled drug under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 and is not scheduled under UK controlled-substance legislation. It is supplied strictly as a research chemical for in-vitro and laboratory use, and it is not for human or veterinary consumption. It is not a licensed medicine and carries no approved human or veterinary application. The purchaser is responsible for complying with all applicable laws governing its handling, storage and use. See our research disclaimer for full terms.
Every batch of SS-31 is released only after independent analytical testing. Purity is assessed by HPLC at >= 99%, and identity is confirmed against the expected mass for C32H49N9O5 (639.8 g/mol). Each order ships with access to a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis documenting these results so the molecule can be verified against its recorded identifiers before use. You can review the supporting documentation on our Certificates of Analysis page.
Not all material sold under the SS-31 name is equivalent. Confirming CAS 736992-21-5, CID 11764719 and the published HPLC purity against a current CoA is the only reliable way to know what a vial contains.
The published literature studies SS-31 (elamipretide) as a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide, including its reported association with cardiolipin and mitochondrial bioenergetics in laboratory, in-vitro and animal-model systems. These are pre-clinical research observations only. None of this establishes any benefit, effect or outcome in humans, and SS-31 is not a licensed medicine. For a fuller, referenced account of the research area, see the SS-31 (elamipretide) research monograph.
SS-31 is manufactured to research grade and supplied as a white to off-white lyophilised powder. It is soluble in bacteriostatic water for the preparation of laboratory stock solutions. Store the lyophilised solid at -20C, kept dry and protected from light; hold reconstituted material at 2-8C.

Great experience, thanks
By far the best, by a country mile
I’ve used probably around 10 companies in the past year or so. And I can hands down vouch that kovalabs are by far the best, by a complete country mile too. This is based on my experience of being on my 5th order with them so far, and I dont intend to go anywhere else in the future. So starting off, most importantly the qualty of the peptides themselves are undoubtedly the best. And I also love the fact that they have it tested by an accredited company. AND that it’s done per batch. Secondly, shipping has always arrived next day, without fail. Finally and not least, the customer support are incredible, fast, polite and patient. Also feels very ‘family run’ which I personally appreciate. Highly recommend, keep it up!
Exceptional
2nd order with Kovalabs. Order Saturday morning, arrived Sunday! Looking at their range 10mg seems to be pretty standard, alot of peptide sites seem to be only selling 5mg for research purposes. Very nice people to deal with. Definatley give these guys a try.
Faultless!
Cannot fault these guys, from ordering to delivery to product quality. 3rd order and always outstanding service. Products are proving great for my research too, best provider around. Wont go anywhere else now.
