Epithalon Price in the UAE: Synthesis, Purity and Cost per mg (2026)

The Epithalon price in the UAE is set less by chain length than by how cleanly a four-residue peptide with an Asp-Gly motif is made and tested, so the fair comparison is cost per measured milligram on a batch certificate, with UAE delivery from SHLabz at AED 15, or free over AED 350.

Epithalon, also written Epitalon or AEDG, is a tetrapeptide: four amino acids, which makes it one of the shortest peptides in the SHLabz catalogue. A short chain means few synthesis steps. However, its sequence ends in aspartic acid followed by glycine, a pairing that peptide chemists treat with care, and that is where much of the quality work goes.

This guide explains what sets the price of Epithalon, how to compare the vial and the nasal spray on an honest per-milligram basis, and which delivery and payment terms change the total in the UAE. We do not quote product prices here, because they change. Instead, the current price is on the Epithalon product page.

Quick answer: The Epithalon price in the UAE depends on vial size, measured content, purity, format and delivery. Divide the price by the measured milligrams on the batch certificate, and compare vials with vials and sprays with sprays. SHLabz delivers in the UAE for AED 15, free over AED 350, same-day in standard zones for orders before 12:00 (next day after 12:00).

What Epithalon Is, Chemically

Epithalon has the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly (AEDG), molecular formula C14H22N4O9 and molecular weight 390.35 g/mol, according to PubChem, which lists CAS number 307297-39-8 under the name Epithalon. It is a defined synthetic peptide, which sets it apart from epithalamin, the pineal extract it was developed from. Our Epitalon vs epithalamin guide explains that difference in full.

Because the chain is so short, assembly costs less per molecule than it does for a 16-residue peptide such as MOTS-c. So for Epithalon, the price reflects purification and testing more than the number of coupling steps.

Why the Asp-Gly Motif Matters

In Fmoc solid-phase synthesis, aspartic acid can cyclise under the basic conditions used to remove each protecting group, forming an aspartimide. Chemistry suppliers describe Asp-Gly as the most difficult sequence for this side reaction. The aspartimide can then reopen to give by-products, and some of them, such as beta-aspartyl and epimerised peptides, have exactly the same mass as the target.

In a four-residue chain the aspartic acid is exposed to only a few deprotection steps, so the risk is limited. Even so, a same-mass by-product is invisible to mass spectrometry alone. That is why HPLC separation, not just a mass match, is what shows whether a batch of Epithalon is clean, and why that testing is part of the price.

Identity by Mass

Mass spectrometry still confirms that the main component is a 390 Da tetrapeptide rather than something else. A missing residue or a wrong amino acid shows up as a different mass. So a sound certificate pairs both methods: mass for identity, HPLC for purity.

The Factors Behind the Epithalon Price in the UAE

• Vial size. SHLabz lists Epithalon in a 10 mg vial, so size comparisons between suppliers should start there.
• Measured content. The mass a laboratory actually found, which may sit above or below the label.
• Net peptide. Freeze-dried powder also holds counter-ions and a little residual water, as our counter-ions guide explains.
• Purity. The HPLC main peak as a share of all peaks, which is where same-mass by-products are caught.
• Format. A nasal spray carries solution, bottle and cold-chain costs that a sealed vial does not.

Calculating the Epithalon Price per mg in the UAE

The figures below are invented round numbers in plain units, for illustration only; none is a SHLabz price.

• Headline. A 10 mg vial at 100 units works out at 10 per mg.
• Purity. At 98% purity, it holds 9.8 mg of target peptide, so about 10.2 per mg.
• Content. If the certificate measures 10.3 mg, divide by 10.3 instead: about 9.7 per mg.
• Delivery. Add any delivery fee before dividing. Over AED 350 in the UAE, there is none.

The content step can work in your favour as well as against you: a vial that measures above its label is cheaper per real milligram than the headline suggests. Put simply, compare suppliers at the same step, with both sides describing the same material.

Epithalon Price in the UAE by Format

SHLabz lists Epithalon in two formats, and they are priced for different kinds of work.

• Vial. Epithalon as lyophilised powder in a sealed 10 mg vial, stable at room temperature while dry and dark.
• Nasal spray. The Epithalon nasal spray is supplied pre-mixed, so it is kept at 2–8 °C from arrival and ships within the UAE only.

The vial gives the cleanest cost per milligram. By contrast, the spray’s price includes the solution, the bottle and the cold handling, so compare it with other sprays rather than with powder. Bacteriostatic water is sold separately in 3 ml and 10 ml vials, so include it if your lab needs it for the vial.

What the Literature Studies

Epithalon was developed from the amino acid composition of epithalamin, a polypeptide extract of bovine pineal gland studied by Vladimir Khavinson, Vladimir Anisimov and colleagues. A 2025 review in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences by Araj and colleagues gathers the published work. Most of it is cell culture and animal research, with a small number of clinical reports, and the authors note that information on safety is missing from the analysed works.

So SHLabz supplies Epithalon for laboratory research only, and makes no claim about any human use. Our tripeptides guide covers three even shorter peptides, and our lyophilisation guide explains why the powder form keeps well.

Delivery on Top of the Epithalon Price in the UAE

SHLabz charges AED 15 to deliver anywhere in the UAE, and nothing on orders over AED 350. Orders placed before 12:00 UAE time on a working day arrive the same day in our standard delivery zones, and orders placed after 12:00 arrive the next day. Remote areas take 1–3 working days. We process orders Monday to Friday, except on UAE public holidays.

Cold Chain for Vial and Spray

Every UAE order travels in an insulated pouch with frozen gel packs. The sealed vial does not strictly need it, but the spray does, because it holds a solution that belongs at 2–8 °C. Dubai’s mean daily maximum is 42.1 °C in August, with humidity around 53%, so collect any parcel containing a spray promptly and refrigerate it on arrival. Our storage guide covers both formats.

Epithalon Outside the UAE

Epithalon vials ship to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and Jordan in 2–4 working days, for AED 60 or free over AED 2,500. The nasal spray stays in the UAE. Import requirements and duties are the recipient’s responsibility.

From Order to Door in the UAE

1. Choose the format. First, decide between vial and spray, and compare like with like.
2. Check the certificate. Next, open the Epithalon report and note purity and measured content.
3. Order before noon. Then place the order before 12:00 on a working day for same-day delivery in standard zones; after 12:00 it arrives the next day.
4. Pay. After that, choose card, Apple Pay, Tamara, crypto, or cash or card on delivery.
5. Receive. Match the batch number on the vial or spray to its certificate.
6. Store. Finally, refrigerate the spray at once and keep sealed vials dry and dark.

Paying the Epithalon Price in the UAE

UAE orders can be paid by card, Apple Pay, Tamara, cryptocurrency, or cash or card on delivery. Tamara is available in the UAE and Saudi Arabia and spreads the total without changing it. In addition, optional shipping protection costs AED 24.99 plus 5% of the order value, unticked unless you choose it.

Regulation Behind the Epithalon Price in the UAE

Federal Decree-Law No. 38 of 2024 governs medical products and pharmaceutical establishments in the UAE, and it took effect on 2 January 2025. The Emirates Drug Establishment (EDE) is the federal body that acts on unapproved medicines. In July 2026, the EDE acted against 71 sources selling unapproved peptide products and referred 14 influencers to the National Media Office.

A “research use only” label describes presentation, not registration. So an Epithalon listing that promises anti-ageing or longevity outcomes is a warning sign at any price. Our article on whether research peptides are legal covers the wider position.

Reading the Epithalon Certificate

SHLabz publishes an Epithalon certificate on our lab results page. Janoshik Analytical tested our Epithalon 10 mg batch SH-EP10-112026 on 22 October 2026, and its report gives HPLC purity of 98.738% and measured content of 10.33 mg, with a “Verify” link to Janoshik’s own record.

So for that vial, the honest divisor is 10.33 mg, slightly above the 10 mg label. Use the batch number printed on your vial to find its report, and divide by the measured content it gives. Our HPLC guide and certificate guide explain each line, and our impurities guide covers what the minor peaks can be.

An Epithalon Price Checklist for the UAE

1. No certificate. First, a price without a batch report is a price for an unknown.
2. Mass only, no HPLC. Next, same-mass by-products from the Asp-Gly motif need HPLC to show up.
3. No measured content. The label weight is not the mass in the vial.
4. No named laboratory. An unnamed test cannot be verified.
5. Extract sold as peptide. Epithalamin and Epithalon are different materials; check which one is listed.
6. Spray compared with powder. Then check that you are comparing the same format.
7. Blank labels. Every vial and spray should carry its name and batch.
8. Outcome claims. Finally, ageing or lifespan promises are a reason to walk away.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Epithalon price in the UAE? It changes, so we do not quote it in articles. The current price is on the Epithalon product page.

Why is Epithalon not cheap if it only has four residues? Assembly is short, but its Asp-Gly motif can produce same-mass by-products, so purification and HPLC testing carry much of the cost.

Is the spray cheaper per mg than the vial? They are different formats. The spray’s price includes solution, bottle and cold handling.

Can the Epithalon spray ship to the GCC? No. The spray stays in the UAE; vials ship to the GCC and Jordan in 2–4 working days.

How much is UAE delivery? AED 15, free over AED 350, same-day in standard zones for orders before 12:00 on a working day and next day for orders after 12:00.

Does a sealed Epithalon vial need a fridge? No. Sealed powder is stable at room temperature when dry and dark; refrigerate after reconstitution.

Where is the Epithalon certificate? On our lab results page: batch SH-EP10-112026, 98.738% purity, 10.33 mg measured, with a “Verify” link to Janoshik’s record.
