ABOUT IGF-1 DES
IGF-1 DES (Des(1-3) IGF-1) is a shortened variant of insulin-like growth factor 1 with the three N-terminal amino acids removed. The truncation dramatically reduces binding-protein interaction, making it significantly more potent than standard IGF-1 in research models, with a shorter, more localised window of activity. It is the variant of choice in site-specific growth-signalling research. Supplied lyophilised at 1mg with batch COA.
Research highlights
- Up to 10x potency vs standard IGF-1 in studies
- Short, localised activity window
- 1mg lyophilised vial
- Third-party tested with batch COA
HOW IT'S STUDIED
Des(1-3) IGF-1 — N-terminally truncated IGF-1 with dramatically reduced binding-protein interaction, producing higher potency and a shorter, localised activity window.
Lyophilised: store at -20°C. Once reconstituted, refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 2 weeks.
Studied applications
- Site-specific growth signalling
- High-potency IGF research
- Localised tissue response

Reconstitution guideSlowly inject the 1ml of bacteriostatic water down the inside wall of the IGF-1 DES vial (do not aim directly at the powder). Gently swirl — never shake — until fully dissolved. Refrigerate after reconstitution; use within 2 weeks. Draw 5 units on a U-100 insulin syringe for a 50mcg research dose.
