How to read this report
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide), in structural terms.
- Sequence
- His-Ser-Asp-Ala-Val-Phe-Thr-Asp-Asn-Tyr-Thr-Arg-Leu-Arg-Lys-Gln-Met-Ala-Val-Lys-Lys-Tyr-Leu-Asn-Ser-Ile-Leu-Asn-NH₂ One-letter representation: HSDAVFTDNYTRLRKQMAVKKYLNSILN-NH₂ VIP is a 28-residue C-terminally amidated peptide. The sequence corresponds to residues 125–152 of the human VIP precursor (UniProt P01282), from which VIP is released by post-translational processing.

About this compound and its batch data.
What purity did this VIP batch achieve?
Lot VP10 was analysed by Freedom Diagnostics and returned chromatographic purity of 99.28% by HPLC with UV detection coupled to mass spectrometry. Identity was confirmed by mass spectral match. The full certificate is published on this page, and every figure shown here is taken from it.
How much VIP is in the vial?
The laboratory measured 9.63 mg against a 10 mg label claim. Net content is reported on a per-vial basis. Astramide publishes the measured figure rather than the label claim, whether it falls above or below.
Was this VIP batch tested for endotoxins?
Yes. Endotoxin testing was performed using the Limulus Amebocyte Lysate assay in accordance with USP <85>, and this batch returned a pass on both replicates at 0.05 EU/mL sensitivity. The result appears on the certificate published on this page.
How should VIP be stored for research use?
As supplied, the lyophilized powder should be held at -20°C and protected from light and moisture. Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 14 to 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles and follow the handling procedures appropriate to your laboratory.
What is the difference between research-grade and pharmaceutical-grade VIP?
These are separate classifications. Research-grade material is supplied for laboratory research use only and is not intended for human or animal consumption. Pharmaceutical-grade is an FDA classification that applies to drugs manufactured for human use. Astramide supplies research-grade material only.
How can I verify this VIP certificate independently?
The certificate was issued by Freedom Diagnostics under lot VP10, laboratory reference 2606080488. Quote that reference to the laboratory directly. The same document is published here in full, and is not summarised or reformatted by Astramide.
