Research use only. AminoBlend supplies research compounds for laboratory and in-vitro use, not for human or animal consumption. By continuing you confirm you are 18 or older and buying for research.
Buy immune peptides in Australia from AminoBlend, with Thymosin Alpha-1 in 5 mg and 10 mg vials, the thymic preparation Thymalin and the anti-inflammatory tripeptide KPV held in local stock. Labs weighing up the best peptides for immune system research can read each lot's certificate of analysis before ordering. Every vial is independently tested for identity and purity and dispatched from within Australia.

Shop the thymic pair first, since two of the three compounds here trace back to the thymus, the organ in which T cells develop. Thymosin Alpha-1, built from 28 amino acids with an acetylated N-terminus, was isolated in 1977 from calf thymus. It is studied for T cell differentiation, dendritic cell activity and toll-like receptor signalling, and under the name thymalfasin it has been registered as a medicine in several countries outside Australia and examined in clinical research on chronic hepatitis B and vaccine response. Most laboratory work follows how immature thymocytes become functioning T cells and how dendritic cells respond to immune signals. That history gives it a deeper evidence base than most research peptides, and it is the compound most labs start with when choosing the best peptide for immunity models.
Buy Thymosin Alpha-1 as a 5 mg vial at $59 for a first trial or a 10 mg vial at $89, the better value for repeat work. Thymalin comes from a different tradition. It was developed in the Soviet Union in the 1970s from calf thymus extracts and studied mostly by Russian groups for T cell balance and the fall in thymic output with age. Order it as a single 10 mg vial at $119.99, and note that its ageing focus also places it in our longevity peptides. Preparations have varied over the decades, so compare the certificate with the material your reference study used.
Order KPV when inflammation is the endpoint. It is lysine, proline and valine, the final three residues of alpha-MSH, and it retains the parent hormone's anti-inflammatory activity without the pigment response. Research centres on how it damps NF-kappaB signalling in epithelial cells. Most data come from mouse colitis models, helped by evidence that the PepT1 transporter carries KPV into intestinal cells, with skin inflammation work as a second strand. At $59 for 10 mg it is the lowest priced vial in this category, and it also features among the four peptides of the KLOW blend found with our recovery peptides.
The shared name causes regular mix-ups. Both thymosin alpha-1 and thymosin beta-4 came out of the same thymus fraction, yet they have unrelated sequences and answer different research questions. TB-500 is a thymosin beta-4 peptide studied in actin binding and cell migration rather than immune signalling, so it cannot stand in for thymosin alpha-1 or thymalfasin in any protocol. Order by sequence rather than by name, and check the mass on the certificate. Our peptide glossary lists both names next to other terms that are easy to confuse.
Shop by the arm of the immune system under study. Adaptive immunity, T cell maturation, infection and vaccine response models point to Thymosin Alpha-1. Age related thymic decline points to Thymalin, often run beside Thymosin Alpha-1 when age is the variable. Inflammation, particularly in the gut or skin, points to KPV, and labs comparing the best peptides for autoimmune research models, where the aim is to quieten a response rather than strengthen it, usually begin there. None of the three treats any disease, and all are studied in cell and animal models only.
Buy them as individual vials, because the three act on separate pathways and studies that span infection and inflammation measure each one on its own. Two common orders are Thymosin Alpha-1 with KPV, for designs covering infection and inflammation together, and Thymosin Alpha-1 with Thymalin, for projects where thymic ageing is the variable. Start with the 5 mg Thymosin Alpha-1 vial if the model is untested, and move to the 10 mg once the protocol is settled.
Buy knowing each immune peptide lot has been analysed by an independent laboratory. Mass spectrometry confirms the sequence, with a result near 3,108 Da expected for Thymosin Alpha-1, and HPLC reports purity. The lot number on the vial matches its report in the COA library, and the COA reading guide walks through each line. We dispatch on the same business day for orders paid before 3pm, with tracking to every state and territory.
Order bacteriostatic water in the same cart, since all three vials are lyophilised and dissolve in it. Sealed vials keep longest in a freezer at minus 20 °C, or for a few weeks at 2 to 8 °C, shielded from light. Once mixed, a vial stays refrigerated and should be finished within 28 days. They are supplied for laboratory use only under our research use policy and carry no TGA approval.

Thymosin Alpha-1 has the strongest evidence base, with clinical research as thymalfasin and a long run of T cell and dendritic cell studies. Thymalin suits immune ageing models and KPV suits inflammation work. Buy Thymosin Alpha-1 from AminoBlend as a 5 mg vial for $59 or a 10 mg vial for $89, for laboratory research only.
No, they are unrelated peptides that only share part of a name. Both were isolated from the same calf thymus fraction, but thymosin alpha-1 is studied in immune signalling while TB-500 is a thymosin beta-4 peptide studied in cell migration and tissue repair. A protocol that names thymalfasin needs the thymosin alpha-1 vial.
KPV is a three amino acid peptide, Lys-Pro-Val, matching the C-terminal end of alpha-MSH. Research interest centres on its anti-inflammatory action through the NF-kappaB pathway, mostly in mouse colitis and skin inflammation models, without the pigment effects of the parent hormone. Order KPV from AminoBlend as a 10 mg vial for $59.
Thymalin is a thymic peptide preparation developed in the Soviet Union in the 1970s from calf thymus extracts. Research, mostly by Russian groups, has examined T cell balance and the decline of thymic output with age. AminoBlend supplies it as a 10 mg lyophilised vial for $119.99, independently tested and sold for laboratory use only.
Order thymosin alpha-1 online from AminoBlend, which keeps 5 mg and 10 mg vials in Australian stock at $59 and $89. An outside laboratory analyses each lot, and its certificate carries the same lot number as the vial label. Paid orders received before 3pm on a business day are sent out that day, tracked.
