Product Information
MOTS-C (20mg) Research Peptide – Premium-Grade Compound for Laboratory Use
MOTS-C (20mg) from Aus Peptide Supply is a high-purity research peptide supplied as a lyophilised powder. MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA region, and is supplied for scientific investigation and analytical purposes only.
Product Highlights
- High Purity Standard – Produced using advanced synthesis and purification processes, with identity and purity verified by third-party analytical testing.
- Research-Grade Quality Control – Subjected to rigorous third-party analytical testing for identity and purity verification via HPLC and mass spectrometry.
- Secure Packaging – Delivered in sterile, sealed vials to maintain compound integrity during transport and storage.
- Reliable Domestic Sourcing – Dispatched from within Australia in compliance with established laboratory handling and quality assurance protocols.
Intended Use
MOTS-C (20mg) is intended exclusively for laboratory research and scientific study. It is not intended for human or veterinary use, therapeutic application, or consumption. Researchers are responsible for ensuring proper handling, storage, and application in accordance with applicable regulations and institutional guidelines.
Storage & Handling
- Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct light. Lyophilised vials should be kept at -20°C.
- Reconstitute using appropriate laboratory-grade solvents (such as bacteriostatic water) where applicable.
- Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the validated stability window.
Every batch of MOTS-C (20mg) is accompanied by comprehensive documentation, ensuring full traceability and reliability for research environments. This makes it an ideal choice for scientists and institutions requiring verified research-grade peptides.
⚠ For laboratory and research use only. Not for human or veterinary consumption.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is MOTS-C?
MOTS-C is a peptide your mitochondria produce naturally — and one of the most unusual molecules in longevity research because it doesn't come from your nuclear DNA like most proteins do. It was discovered in 2015 by researchers at the University of Southern California. Its role is metabolic signalling: it tells your cells how to handle energy, glucose, and stress. Levels decline with age, and that decline correlates with the metabolic problems that tend to accumulate as people get older — insulin resistance, reduced exercise capacity, poor energy regulation.
Why choose the 20mg vial?
The 20mg vial is the better fit for longer research runs. You get twice the compound of the 10mg version, better value per milligram, and fewer interruptions from needing to reorder mid-protocol. If you already know MOTS-C is part of your research stack, the 20mg is simply more practical.
What makes MOTS-C different from other longevity peptides?
Most longevity peptides — Epitalon, GHK-Cu, SS-31 — either target gene expression, cell repair, or mitochondrial protection. MOTS-C is specifically a metabolic signal: it regulates how your body produces and uses energy at the cellular level. It's most relevant for researchers focused on metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and exercise adaptation alongside longevity — rather than purely on skin, telomeres, or inflammation.
How does MOTS-C work?
When cells are under metabolic stress, MOTS-C moves from the mitochondria into the cell nucleus and activates the body's master energy-regulating switch — a protein called AMPK. When AMPK is active, cells take up glucose more efficiently, burn fat more readily, and generally run more cleanly. This is the same pathway that exercise activates — and researchers believe declining MOTS-C is part of why older bodies respond less effectively to the same training stimulus than younger ones.
What does the research show about MOTS-C?
Animal studies have shown MOTS-C can reverse high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance, improve exercise tolerance, and counteract age-related metabolic decline. In humans, circulating MOTS-C levels are lower in people with type 2 diabetes and obesity — and decline measurably with age — supporting the idea that it plays an active protective role rather than being a passive byproduct of healthy metabolism.
How do you reconstitute MOTS-C?
MOTS-C is supplied as a lyophilized powder and should be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water (BAC water) immediately before use. Inject the BAC water slowly into the vial, directing the stream down the inside wall. Gently swirl to dissolve — do not shake. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within 28 days. For a full step-by-step walkthrough, see our complete peptide reconstitution guide.
How should MOTS-C be stored?
Store lyophilized MOTS-C vials at -20°C, away from light and moisture. After reconstitution with BAC water, refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 28 days. Do not freeze the reconstituted solution.
