Seven amino acids long, it is a laboratory extension of a fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone, and published papers file it both as ACTH(4-7)PGP and as an ACTH(4-10) analogue. This is the 10 mg Semax vial, the smaller of two, listed as 27464.
No certificate is published for this size yet. Semax lots are independently lab-tested before release and the document follows.
In vitro neuroprotection research purposes only. Australian Research Peptides does not supply Semax for human or veterinary use.
Semax is studied in neuroprotection research, a field concerned with nerve-cell biology in culture and in animal models. The published literature on the compound is largely Russian-language and is built around which genes are active in brain tissue, most often those for nerve-growth proteins and for the Trk receptors they act on. Papers file the compound both as ACTH(4-7)PGP and as an analogue of ACTH(4-10). All of that work is preclinical, and none of it is a claim Australian Research Peptides makes for the vial.
Semax is a heptapeptide, which simply means a chain of seven amino acids. Written out it is Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro, or MEHFPGP in single-letter code. The opening four are positions 4 to 7 of adrenocorticotropic hormone. The closing three, proline-glycine-proline, are synthetic, and the hormone does not carry them. Published papers file the compound both as ACTH(4-7)PGP and as an analogue of ACTH(4-10). Either way it is an analogue, so nothing proven about the hormone transfers to Semax.
Australian Research Peptides lists Semax under Neuropeptide Research, in a 10 mg and a 30 mg vial. Both hold the same chain and differ only in how much powder was weighed in. Its batches are independently lab-tested, by a laboratory the manufacturer commissions, before ARP sells them, and mass spectrometry confirms the mass matches a seven-amino-acid chain rather than the four-amino-acid fragment alone.

Questions about Semax 10 mg
This Semax 10 mg question guide from Australian Research Peptides is specific to the exact listing, with live buying details, size comparisons, concentration calculations, storage, testing and the inherited product background grouped separately. Start with the quick answers or jump to the topic you need.
Exact strength, quantity and listing fit
Semax's 30 mg vial is $139.99, $74.00 more than this 10 mg Semax one. Three of these cost $197.97, so the bigger vial saves $57.98.
Per milligram, Semax 10 mg works out to about $6.60 — $65.99 across 10 mg. The 30 mg Semax vial works out to about $4.67 a milligram.
Ten milligrams of freeze-dried Semax, sealed dry in a glass vial with no diluent supplied. This is the smaller half of the pair — its counterpart holds three times as much beneath one seal.
The 10 mg Semax vial suits a first evaluation or a short bench series where holding a large quantity of an unfamiliar compound is not wanted. It also suits a schedule where each stage begins with its own unopened vial.

Reconstitution and concentration calculations
Australian Research Peptides publishes no fill volume for 27464, so the amount is a decision for the work rather than one the listing sets. 27464 is 10 mg of dry Semax: what the diluent changes is the solution, never the 10 mg sealed in the glass.
The 10 mg Semax vial is dearer per milligram because its fixed costs — container, closure, labelling, handling and postage — do not change with fill weight, so a third of the powder carries the same overhead. Both Semax listings show their own rate.
Product identity and research background
Semax is a synthetic peptide of seven amino acids — four of them a fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone, the other three a laboratory-added tail. That fragment was chosen because it carries none of the parent hormone's hormonal activity. Semax was developed in Moscow and is studied in cognition and neuroprotection research, largely in Russian-language literature.
Semax is described in molecular terms rather than by outcome. It is an analogue of the ACTH(4-7) fragment, and the literature examines it against neurotrophin gene transcription — BDNF, nerve growth factor and their Trk receptors — in brain tissue (Stavchansky 2011). The compound is not a hormone: the synthetic Pro-Gly-Pro tail replaces the residues carrying the parent's corticotropic activity. Every measurement reported for it is preclinical.
Research on Semax is preclinical and largely Russian-language, and it sits in two named areas: neuroprotection and cognition. The endpoints are molecular — transcription of neurotrophin genes and their receptors, and markers of intracellular signalling in brain tissue. Nothing in that literature goes beyond those model systems, and Australian Research Peptides makes no claim for the compound beyond its identity and its assay.
Australian Research Peptides supplies Semax as one freeze-dried solid in a sealed vial. That solid is the chain MEHFPGP, at the milligram weight printed on the label. The powder runs white to off-white inside sealed, tamper-evident glass. There is no filler, no carrier, no second peptide and no liquid. Four of the seven amino acids reproduce part of adrenocorticotropic hormone, and the closing proline-glycine-proline is added in the lab.
Semax is short-lived in serum, and no clean stability figure has been printed for it. Chromatographic work on the peptide in serum describes aminopeptidase — an enzyme that trims amino acids off the front of a chain — removing the first two and leaving shorter fragments of the same chain. Methionine sits at the front of Semax and is the amino acid most exposed to that, which is also why the dry powder is kept sealed, cold and dark rather than held in solution.
Semax is built from seven amino acids in one chain, which makes it a heptapeptide. In order they are Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro, shortened to MEHFPGP (PubChem). Met-Glu-His-Phe is a stretch of adrenocorticotropic hormone, positions four through seven. The last three are a synthetic addition the hormone itself does not have. The count of seven belongs to Semax itself, so both vial sizes contain the identical chain.
Semax has an unusually long paper trail for a research peptide: it has been a registered product in Russia since 1994 and carries decades of Russian-language literature behind it. That record has not been reproduced in Western work, which is the main reason the compound remains unfamiliar elsewhere. Australian Research Peptides supplies it as a research chemical and makes no claim about what it does.
Storage, condition and testing
Most cloudy Semax reports come down to bubbles worked in during mixing, and they lift out within minutes of the vial being set down. The thirty-milligram strength dissolves more slowly than the ten, having three times as much material to take up, so patience beats extra agitation. Once warmed and rested a proper preparation is clear; lasting milkiness or floating specks are not normal.
Semax is dissolved in an aqueous diluent, because the vial contains dry peptide and nothing wet. Diluent is the standard term for whatever a dry compound dissolves into. Semax comes in two vial sizes, both equally dry, so each vial is dissolved on its own.
Semax and Selank are different molecules that share one feature. Both are seven-amino-acid chains ending in proline-glycine-proline, but their opening four amino acids come from unrelated parents. Semax opens with a fragment of adrenocorticotropic hormone. Selank opens with tuftsin. The research fields differ too: Semax is studied for neuroprotection, Selank for signalling between nerve cells and for inflammation-linked genes. Neither substitutes for the other.
Strength comparisons, aliases and related products
Semax is available from Australian Research Peptides and not from Chemist Warehouse, which cannot sell it. Semax is a registered medicine in Russia and in no other market, so there is no Australian registration for a pharmacist here to dispense against. ARP supplies it as a research compound in two vial sizes, under Neuropeptide Research.
Delivery, payment and access questions
Semax is also known as ACTH(4-7)PGP (Sudarkina 2021), as MEHFPGP in single-letter code, and by its written sequence Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro; some papers file it as an analogue of ACTH(4-10) (Eremin 2005). Replacing the last three amino acids with Pro-Gly-Pro is what strips out the hormone action that ACTH carries, so it is an analogue, a modified copy, rather than a piece of ACTH itself. N-Acetyl Semax and the amidated version are related molecules with their own database records, not alternative names. Whichever term you typed, the vial ships from Australian Research Peptides, warehoused locally and independently lab-tested, with the CoA library showing where a certificate is already published.
More questions
Semax comes in two quantities and they look markedly different. Ten milligrams leaves a faint dusting easily read as an empty container; thirty milligrams is three times as much solid and forms a properly visible cake. Neither holds a bulking agent, so what sits inside the glass is peptide alone. Comparing the two strengths explains most confusion about the smaller one.
Store the sealed Semax vial frozen, dry and out of the light. GenScript flags cysteine, methionine and tryptophan as prone to oxidation, and Semax opens with a methionine, which is why light and air matter. Bachem keeps freeze-dried peptides below minus 15 degrees Celsius in a closed container, and GenScript's own figure is minus 20, away from bright light. Warm a frozen vial fully before you break the seal, so moisture does not condense inside. Peptide in solution is far less stable than the dry powder.
Semax in solution is refrigerated at 2 to 8 degrees and given a life of eight weeks to twelve by Australian Research Peptides' published condition. Semax opens on a methionine — MEHFPGP places the most oxidation-prone residue first, at an unblocked N-terminus — so light and dissolved air deserve as much attention as the calendar. The 30 mg vial is likelier to outlast that window.
Semax has never been approved in the United States. It is approved somewhere, however: Russia's health ministry registered it as a medicine in 1994. A registration granted in one country is not a worldwide licence, and no Western agency has assessed the Russian-language clinical record standing behind it. Freeze-dried research powder is not that registered product in any case.
Semax has no listing of its own in any prohibited category. Whether the residual S0 heading reaches it turns on one point: Russia's health ministry registered Semax as a medicine in 1994, and S0 excludes anything a government regulator has approved somewhere. Whether an anti-doping panel accepts a Russian registration is untested, so Australian athletes should ask Sport Integrity Australia.
Semax is independently lab-tested before supply, with mass spectrometry reading the molecular mass and comparing it against what the sequence predicts. For Semax that check matters, because it separates a seven-amino-acid chain from the shorter ACTH(4-7) fragment it opens with. No matching certificate is currently published for this product and strength.
Plain Semax is not the same as N-Acetyl Semax Amidate. Australian Research Peptides supplies plain Semax, unmodified at both ends of the chain, with a free amino group at one end and a free acid at the other. N-Acetyl Semax Amidate carries an acetyl group at one end and an amide at the other, changes intended to alter stability. It is a different molecule with a different molecular formula, held as a separate record in the public databases, and suppliers do not always make the distinction clear. ARP states which of the two it supplies in its published specifications.
Semax and Selank come from the same Russian research programme but derive from different parents — Semax from an ACTH fragment, Selank from tuftsin — and their published literatures sit in different research areas, Semax in neuroprotection and Selank in nerve-cell signalling and inflammation-linked gene expression. They are complementary rather than competing, which is why researchers frequently hold both.
