Bioactive Peptides

The PolyPeptide Group offers an extensive catalog with more than 800 bioactive peptides sold by net peptide content. Also available from the catalog are HIV related peptides, enzyme substrates and inhibitors.

Our goal, over the years, has always been to provide you with a growing selection of tools specifically adapted to your needs.

The current edition of our bioactive peptide catalog features nearly 2,000 reference peptides and amino acid derivatives, including :


New peptides in the families of Amyloid-β protein sequences, Brain and Gut peptides, Cancer related peptides, Hypothalamic releasing hormones, Thrombin related peptides, Virus related peptides, Maillard reaction products, Protein Kinase substrates and inhibitors, Neuropeptides.

Please take a moment to look through our catalog.

We are strongly committed to our customers and continue to develop our product ranges accordingly. Do not hesitate to contact us for additional products you would like to see in our catalog!

Quality Control - Quality Assurance

The PolyPeptide Group guarantees the best available quality for all its peptides. We follow stringent, precise procedures to ensure complete identification and very high purity.

Every PolyPeptide products must conform to strict analytical specifications before sales and shipment. Of course, a specific analytical data sheet of each batch is sent with every product.

Our bioactive peptides are controlled by : HPLC (periodically recontrolled), Amino acid analysis, Mass spectrometry

Net Peptide Content: our bioactive peptides are sold by net peptide weight as determined by amino acid analysis and/or UV. There is an important difference between peptide content and peptide purity. Peptides inevitably contain both counterions and residual water as they are isolated as salts (such as acetates) by lyophilisation.

So, even if a peptide is 98% pure, the net amount of peptide may only represent 70-85% of the total weight of the powder depending on its amino acid composition, last purification step and lyophilisation.

For instance, your order 5 mg of NPY from PolyPeptide. If the net peptide content is 80%, you will receive in fact at least 5/0.8= 6.25 mg of powder. The advantage for you is that you have the exact amount of peptide in your vial. Even if you work in a humid area where hydration can change the weight of the powder.

This makes quantitative comparisons of the results obtained in different laboratories possible and facilitates communication between them.

Special Amino Acids and Building Blocks


From Research to Pilot Scale

Special amino acids and derivatives, organic building blocks and turn mimics are useful tools for your peptide design. We have accumulated great experience in expected properties of organic building blocks. They are available from our catalog, or can be developed by our chemists.

Over 600 unusual amino acids and organic building blocks in stock

featuring beta-amino acids, gamma-amino acids, aminobenzoic acids, polyethylene glycol spacers, statines, diamines and more, that illustrate our particular know-how in special peptide and peptidomimetic synthesis.
