Description

What makes MOTS-c unusual

Most peptides are encoded in nuclear DNA. MOTS-c is encoded in mitochondrial DNA,1 which is a different origin from almost everything else in this catalogue.

It’s a 16-residue peptide. Identity data below is from PubChem,2 and the molecular weight of 2174.6 g/mol puts it among the larger compounds we stock.

One strength

We list 40mg, and it is the size the certificate covers.

Search interest in MOTS-c dosing rose sharply over the past year in Canada, and almost no Canadian supplier publishes a certificate for it. Ours is below.

Testing

Tested at 99.29% with Medutest, report on file.

As with everything here, that figure covers identity and purity of the vial contents. It doesn’t address sterility, endotoxin or heavy metals, and it applies to the tested lot.

MOTS-c: frequently asked questions

Direct answers on identity, testing, cost and the Canadian regulatory position. We do not publish dosing or effect claims, and one of the questions below explains why.

What is MOTS-c?

MOTS-c is a research compound supplied for laboratory research use only. Its verified identity data is a molecular weight of 2174.6 g/mol, CAS 1627580-64-6, PubChem CID 146675088. It is listed under Fat Loss & Body Composition and available in 40mg.

Is MOTS-c safe?

No safety profile has been established for MOTS-c, and nothing on this site should be read as saying otherwise. What we can tell you is narrower and verifiable: this lot was assayed at 99.29% by Medutest and we hold the full report and send it on request. An HPLC purity result is a statement about identity and purity in a tested lot. It does not measure sterility, endotoxin or heavy metals, and it is not a safety assessment. Health Canada has published advisories on unauthorized injectable peptides, and you should read the research use disclaimer before ordering.

Is MOTS-c legal in Canada?

Health Canada regulates injectable peptides as drugs, and it has stated in writing that labelling one “for research use only” does not remove it from that regulation. The regulator has published advisories naming specific compounds, seized product from Canadian sellers, and obtained a court injunction against at least one seller. Most suppliers present research use labelling as though it settles the question. On the regulator’s own published statements, it does not, and we would rather say so than let you assume otherwise. Read the disclaimer in full.

Is MOTS-c a steroid?

No. MOTS-c is a peptide, not an anabolic steroid, and the two are different classes of molecule with different structures. Its molecular weight is 2174.6 g/mol. Steroids share a four-ring carbon skeleton; peptides are chains of amino acids.

How to reconstitute MOTS-c?

Use the peptide calculator: enter the vial’s total mass and your target concentration, and it returns the volume of bacteriostatic water to add. That is arithmetic, not a dosing instruction, and it is the step people most often get wrong. Reconstituted material has a much shorter usable life than sealed powder.

Is MOTS-c third party tested?

Yes. This lot was assayed at 99.29% by Medutest, and we hold the full report and send it on request rather than compressing it into a badge. The batch reference travels on the packing slip, which is what lets you match the vial you received to the report on the lab results index. A purity figure with no batch behind it tells you nothing about your vial.

Where to buy MOTS-c in Canada?

Here, shipped across Canada, with the batch certificate reference on the packing slip. The thing worth comparing between Canadian suppliers is not price but what each one publishes: whether a third-party report exists, whether it is shown in full or reduced to a percentage, and whether it can be tied to the lot you received.

How much does MOTS-c cost?

Prices are on the product page in Canadian dollars, and this product is offered in 40mg. Compare price per milligram rather than price per vial, because strengths differ between suppliers and a cheaper vial is often a smaller one. A vial with no assay and no batch reference is not the same product at a lower price, it is a different proposition.

What does MOTS-c do?

We do not answer that here, and the reason is not evasiveness. Describing what a compound does, in a shop that sells it, is a therapeutic claim, and that is the line between describing a research compound and marketing an unlicensed drug. What we publish instead is identity, purity, the testing laboratory and the limits of the assay. Where published research exists, the product page cites it and links the source so you can read it yourself rather than take our summary of it.

MOTS-c vs SLU-PP-332?

They are different compounds with different identity data and different research literature, and neither substitutes for the other. The comparison worth making is on what each one is and what evidence exists for it, which is set out on both product pages. See SLU-PP-332.
