Frequently Asked Questions
What is Peptide Biologix?
Peptide Biologix is a comprehensive research database providing detailed technical monographs on therapeutic peptides for scientific research and laboratory applications.
Who is this database for?
Our content is designed for researchers, scientists, laboratory professionals, pharmaceutical developers, quality control specialists, and academic institutions working with therapeutic peptides.
Are these peptides for sale?
No. Peptide Biologix is an information database only. We do not manufacture, sell, or distribute peptides. All information is provided for research reference purposes.
Can I use this information for medical purposes?
No. The information in this database is for laboratory research only. Many compounds discussed are not approved for human use. Always consult qualified healthcare professionals for medical advice.
How often is the database updated?
Monographs are reviewed and updated quarterly as new research is published. Major updates occur when significant clinical trials or regulatory actions affect a compound.
Can I cite information from this database?
Yes. Each monograph includes extensive PubMed citations. We recommend citing the original research papers rather than this database directly.
What makes a "research monograph" different from a spec sheet?
Our research monographs provide comprehensive coverage including molecular characterization, synthesis methods, detailed mechanisms, preclinical and clinical research, analytical methods, research applications, dosing protocols, storage guidelines, safety profiles, and extensive literature reviews. They typically range from 3,500-4,500 words compared to brief specification sheets.
Are the peptides discussed FDA-approved?
Some are (e.g., Tesamorelin, PT-141), but many are research compounds not approved for human use. Each monograph clearly states the regulatory status.
Can I request a new peptide monograph?
Yes. Submit requests via our contact page with the compound name and research justification.
How do I report errors or suggest updates?
Contact us with the specific page database ID, the error/update, and supporting references (PubMed ID or DOI).
