About TB-500
About TB-500
Origin Peptides TB-500 Vial is a 5 mg or 10 mg lyophilised (freeze-dried) single compound research vial from Origin Peptides, sealed under nitrogen, batch numbered and cold stored. Supplied strictly for laboratory research; not for human or veterinary use.
Handling and storage
Vials are shipped lyophilised and should go into a -20C freezer on arrival, protected from light. Lyophilised peptide is stable for months when kept cold, dry and sealed; once a vial is opened or reconstituted it should be handled according to your laboratory's protocols. Bacteriostatic water, syringes and other lab supplies are sold separately. No reconstitution or usage guidance is given on this site.

What the published research says
TB-500 is a synthetic fragment of thymosin beta-4, a 43-amino-acid protein present in almost all mammalian cells, where it binds and sequesters actin monomers and regulates cell migration.
The thymosin beta-4 literature is broad. Malinda and colleagues reported accelerated dermal wound closure in rats (Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1999); Bock-Marquette and colleagues reported cardiac repair after myocardial infarction in mice (Nature, 2004); and Sosne and colleagues published a series on corneal wound healing. A phase II human trial of full-length thymosin beta-4 in venous stasis ulcers (Guarnera and colleagues, Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010) reported faster healing at one dose level.
TB-500 as sold for research is the actin-binding fragment (residues 17 to 23) or a related synthetic sequence, not the full-length protein studied in the human trial. It is prohibited in sport under WADA S0. Any account of its effects should distinguish the fragment from the full protein.
Research profile
The research profile card in the image gallery scores five areas of the published literature out of five (tissue repair, recovery and sleep, growth and muscle, fat loss and metabolic, cognition and longevity). It reflects where the studies have concentrated, not a claim about effects. TB-500 sits in the Tissue & Recovery category of the Origin Peptides range, which is colour coded on the vial band and the card.
Lab testing
Every batch of TB-500 is tested by an independent laboratory before it is released, with identity confirmed by HPLC or LC-MS and the purity stated on the certificate.
Each vial carries a batch number. The certificate of analysis is published on the Lab Testing page, so you can match the report to the number on your vial.

Questions
Is it legal to buy in the UK? Research peptides of this kind are not controlled substances under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, so buying and holding the material for laboratory research is lawful. Selling or advertising it for human use would make it an unlicensed medicine under MHRA rules, which is why this listing carries no usage guidance and every item is labelled research use only.
Is the vial reconstituted? No. Every Origin Peptides vial is supplied as lyophilised powder with the stated milligram content, which is the standard format for research peptides because it is more stable than solution. Reconstitution is a laboratory step and is not described here.
How is it shipped? Orders placed before the daily cut off are despatched the same working day by tracked delivery, usually arriving within two to three working days for UK addresses, with a next day upgrade available at checkout. Parcels are plain and unbranded. Vials travel lyophilised, which tolerates transit at ambient temperature; refrigerate or freeze on arrival.
Are these compounds prohibited in sport? Most peptides in this range are prohibited by WADA, either under S0 (non-approved substances) or S2 (peptide hormones and growth factors). Anyone subject to anti-doping rules should treat the whole category as prohibited.
Research use only. This product is supplied strictly for laboratory and research purposes and is not for human or veterinary use. It is not a medicine, not a food supplement and not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Sold to persons aged 18 or over only.
