What is FGL?

FGL is a 15-amino-acid peptide from the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM). It binds the FGF receptor and triggers its signaling.

It’s used in research on memory and neuroprotection.

What studies say about FGL

Cambon and colleagues reported in 2004 that FGL improved memory and synaptic plasticity in rats. Later studies looked at amyloid-related neuron damage.

Studies are preclinical.

How to mix a FGL vial

FGL arrives as a freeze-dried (lyophilized) powder in a sealed glass vial. It has to be dissolved before use, and for most peptides that means bacteriostatic water. Let the water run slowly down the inside wall of the vial, then swirl gently until the solution is clear. Don’t shake it.

The amount of water you add sets the concentration. For example, adding 2mL of bacteriostatic water to a 2mg vial gives 1mg per mL. Write the volume and the date on the label so anyone picking up the vial later knows what’s in it.

We sell bacteriostatic water in 30mL vials, and acetic acid solution for the few peptides that don’t dissolve well in water.

Choosing a FGL vial size

The vial comes in 2mg, 5mg and 10mg. The contents are the same apart from the amount, so the choice comes down to how much your study needs and how quickly you’ll use a mixed vial.

Mixed peptides don’t last as long as dry ones, so several smaller vials can work out better than one large one if you’re running a slow study.

Purity testing for FGL

We test each batch of FGL by LC-MS, which pairs liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry. The chromatography splits the sample into its components and the mass spectrometer identifies them, which tells you both identity and purity. This batch came in at 99% or higher.

Small differences between batches are normal, so write the batch number from the label into your records. If something looks wrong when your order arrives, like discoloured powder or a cloudy solution, set it aside and don’t use it.

Storing your FGL

Keep it in the fridge at 2 to 8°C and don’t freeze it. Once mixed, keep the vial in the fridge and use it within a few weeks. Unmixed vials keep much longer, so only reconstitute what you need. Label anything you decant with the compound, amount and date, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.

Common questions about the FGL peptide vial

Does FGL come with water to mix it?

No. The vial holds only the freeze-dried powder. Add bacteriostatic water to your order if you don’t already have some.

How long does mixed FGL last?

Kept in the fridge, most reconstituted peptides are good for a few weeks. Unmixed vials last much longer, especially in the fridge or freezer.
