VIP 10mg Peptides
Built for serious research, this vial delivers the precision and consistency that controlled peptide studies demand.
Peptide Scientific Labs VIP is supplied as a lyophilized peptide vial for laboratory use. This unflavored, dry-powder format supports careful handling and controlled reconstitution, with a total strength of 10mg per vial. VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) is a well-characterized neuropeptide studied across vascular, neurological, and immunological research domains, where consistency, purity, and stability are critical.
- Each vial contains 10mg of VIP, a neuropeptide investigated for roles in vasodilation, smooth muscle relaxation, neuroimmune signaling, and receptor-mediated pathways in vitro, supporting assays that require reliable identity and high purity.
The lyophilized format is selected to help preserve peptide integrity during storage and shipment. In laboratory settings, investigators value this presentation for controlled reconstitution and compatibility with standard sterile techniques and validated workflows. Texture is a fine, dry powder; appearance may range from white to off-white, reflecting typical peptide characteristics. This is a non-edible research material intended for qualified personnel working within established laboratory SOPs.
Use cases commonly include receptor-binding evaluations, pathway mapping, and method development where consistent peptide performance is essential. The controlled 10mg fill helps streamline experimental planning and inventory alignment across replicates and time points. Cold-chain stewardship and careful packaging help maintain the material in a state suitable for research environments from receipt to bench.
Peptide Scientific Labs operates with a quality-first mindset. Each lot is produced in the USA under stringent controls and verified by independent analytical testing (including HPLC and LC-MS) to confirm identity and assess purity. Materials are handled in clean, controlled settings, with batch-level traceability and tamper-evident packaging for added assurance. Our standards prioritize transparency, consistency, and reliability—core requirements for reproducible laboratory work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is VIP?
VIP stands for vasoactive intestinal peptide, a naturally occurring neuropeptide with broad physiological roles. It is relevant to vascular, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and neuroimmune research, so it spans several systems at once. For site content, it should be described as a research peptide intended for laboratory investigation only.
What is VIP typically studied for?
Researchers commonly study VIP for vasodilation, smooth-muscle signaling, gut physiology, airway biology, and neuroimmune modulation. Because it has such a wide physiological footprint, the best FAQ wording is specific and mechanistic rather than turning it into a catch-all therapeutic claim.
What are neuropeptides?
Neuropeptides are short chains of amino acids produced primarily by neurons and used as signaling molecules within the nervous system. Unlike classical neurotransmitters, which are small molecules stored in synaptic vesicles, neuropeptides are synthesized as larger precursor proteins and then enzymatically processed into their active short-chain form before being released.
Examples of widely studied neuropeptides include oxytocin, vasopressin, substance P, and neuropeptide Y. They are investigated in connection with mood, stress response, memory, pain signaling, social behavior, and a wide range of other neurobiological processes in research models.
How do neuropeptides differ from classical neurotransmitters?
Classical neurotransmitters such as glutamate, GABA, dopamine, and acetylcholine are small, non-peptide molecules. They are typically synthesized directly in the presynaptic terminal, stored in small clear vesicles, and released for fast point-to-point signaling across the synaptic cleft. Their action is usually short-lived and terminated by reuptake or rapid enzymatic breakdown.
Neuropeptides, by contrast, are larger, are produced from longer precursor proteins in the cell body, and are stored in dense-core vesicles. They are generally released under higher-frequency stimulation and tend to produce slower, longer-lasting, and more modulatory effects — often operating over larger spatial distances within the nervous system.
Where are neuropeptides produced in the body?
Neuropeptides are produced primarily in neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system, but they are also found in many non-neuronal tissues. Major sites of production include the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, gut enteric nervous system, adrenal medulla, and various endocrine cells throughout the gastrointestinal tract.
This broad distribution is one reason neuropeptides are such a large research area — many of them act at the intersection of nervous, endocrine, and immune signaling. Peptide Scientific Labs supplies synthetic neuropeptide reference compounds for in vitro laboratory use only.
