SS-31

What is SS-31 (Elamipretide)?

SS-31, also known as Elamipretide, is a synthetic tetrapeptide that selectively targets the inner mitochondrial membrane. Unlike broad-acting antioxidants, SS-31 works through direct interaction with cardiolipin — a phospholipid essential for optimal mitochondrial function and ATP production. This targeted mechanism has made SS-31 a compound of significant interest in research focused on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and cellular resilience.

Research Applications

• Cardiolipin stabilization — direct inner mitochondrial membrane interaction
• Oxidative stress reduction — targeted mitochondrial antioxidant effects
• Cardiac research models — investigated for cardiomyocyte function
• Renal & neurological research — explored for tissues with high mitochondrial demand
• Aging & longevity studies — referenced in mitochondrial decline pathways

SS-31 pairs well with NAD+ and MOTS-c in mitochondrial research stacks.

Quality, Sourcing & UAE Delivery

Every batch of SS-31 supplied by Emirates Peptides is independently tested by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and verified at ≥99% purity. Each vial is lyophilized under controlled conditions, sealed under inert atmosphere, and labeled with batch number and analytical data. As a Dubai-based research peptide supplier, we ship across the UAE — Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain — with discreet packaging.

Reconstitution & Handling

SS-31 is supplied as a sterile lyophilized powder and must be reconstituted before use in research. We recommend using bacteriostatic water for sterile dilution. For accurate dosing, use our free peptide reconstitution calculator to calculate the correct units per volume based on your vial size and desired concentration. Store reconstituted solution at 2–8°C and protect from light.
