  • Description This synthetic dodecapeptide represents the specific platelet receptor recognition site of the human fibrinogen γ chain (residues 400-411). It is a potent inhibitor of the binding of fibrinogen, fibronectin, and von Willebrand factor to thrombin- or ADP-stimulated platelets. The peptide has also been used in studying phosphorylation processes associated with platelet activation.
  • Storage Guidelines Normally, this peptide will be delivered in lyophilized form and should be stored in a freezer at or below -20 °C. For more details, please refer to the manual: Handling and Storage of Synthetic Peptides

About TFA salt

Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.

Impact on Net Weight:
The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.

Solubility:
TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.

In Biological Assays:
For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
