What Is BPC-157?
BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide made up of a short chain of 15 amino acids. The name comes from "Body Protection Compound" — the peptide corresponds to a partial sequence identified in a protein found in gastric juice. It is produced synthetically for research and supplied as a stable, lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder.
As a research material it is valued for being notably stable and highly soluble, which makes it straightforward to prepare and work with in the laboratory.
Everything on this page describes the handling and properties of a research compound in a laboratory context only. It is not guidance for human or animal use. Products supplied by North Peptides UK are for research use only and are not for human or animal consumption.
Why Is BPC-157 Studied?
BPC-157 is a frequent subject of preclinical research. The scientific interest centres on tissue-repair research models and gastrointestinal research, where it is used as an investigational compound. Published work to date is laboratory and animal-model research.
Because this is an active area of investigation rather than settled science, BPC-157 is supplied purely as a reference research compound. North Peptides UK makes no claims about effects in humans, and nothing here should be read as guidance for human or animal use.
How BPC-157 Is Supplied
BPC-157 is stocked by North Peptides UK as a 10mg lyophilised vial, listed with supplier-stated 99%+ purity and stored frozen until dispatch, with supplier documentation available on request where held. It is UK stocked and dispatched within 24–48 hours of confirmed payment on business days.
It is also one of the four compounds in the KLOW Stack research blend, alongside GHK-Cu, TB-500 and KPV.
Handling and Reconstitution
BPC-157 is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water before use in a research preparation. It is highly soluble and dissolves quickly and cleanly; 1ml of bacteriostatic water per 10mg vial is a typical volume for preparing a working concentration.
The standard handling rules apply: run the solvent down the inside wall of the vial, swirl gently rather than shake, and label the vial with the preparation date. Our reconstitution guide covers the full procedure and the concentration arithmetic.
Storage and Stability
In lyophilised form, BPC-157 is stable and is kept frozen for longer-term storage, away from light. Once reconstituted, refrigerate the prepared solution at 2–8°C, keep it out of direct light, and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. With bacteriostatic water, a reconstituted solution typically stays stable for up to 28 days when refrigerated.
Sourcing BPC-157 in the UK
North Peptides UK stocks BPC-157 domestically, so there are no import delays for UK-based researchers. Every batch is listed with supplier-stated 99%+ purity, stored frozen until dispatch, and documented with supplier paperwork available on request where held.
