Cellular & mitochondrial research peptides
Mitochondrial-encoded peptides, redox cofactors and small molecules. Vial masses run from 10mg to 1000mg, so compare per milligram or do not compare at all.
4 compounds, 6 vial sizes, from $0.096/mg to $4.00/mg. The cheapest per milligram here is NAD+.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide - a redox cofactor, not a peptide. Sold in large vial masses, so $/mg is the only sa…
A 16-amino-acid peptide encoded in the mitochondrial genome.
A cell-permeable tetrapeptide with affinity for cardiolipin, studied in mitochondrial model systems.
A small-molecule quinolinium compound, not a peptide. Described in the literature as an NNMT inhibitor in cell models.

What is in this category
A deliberately mixed shelf. MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded in the mitochondrial genome. SS-31, also cataloged as elamipretide, is a cell-permeable tetrapeptide. NAD+ is a dinucleotide coenzyme and not a peptide at all. 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium, also not a peptide.
They are cataloged together across this market for commercial reasons rather than chemical ones. We have kept the convention because that is how people search, and flagged the chemistry on each product page so nobody is misled by the shelf they are standing at.
The widest mass range in the catalog
NAD+ ships at 500mg and 1000mg. MOTS-c ships at 10mg and 40mg. Those are two orders of magnitude apart, so a vial price tells you nothing across that range. Compare within the same material and matched size.
This is the category where publishing a price per milligram stops being a nicety and becomes the only way to read the shelf at all.
What to check
For the peptides, the usual: observed mass consistent with the sequence, HPLC purity with the chromatogram, lot matching. For NAD+ and 5-Amino-1MQ, which are not peptides, the appropriate assay is not a peptide assay, and a certificate that reports one anyway has been produced by somebody working from a template rather than from the material.
