What is a peptide? – Rapid education
Peptides are at the heart of much modern scientific research. Simple, powerful and naturally present in the human body, these small molecules help researchers to better understand various biological processes.
What is a peptide?
A peptide is a small chain of amino acids, the same elements that make up our proteins. It’s like a string of pearls: amino acids are the pearls, peptides are the small strings, and proteins are the large strings.
Why are they used in research?
The peptides sold by Peptivia Lab are intended exclusively for scientific research. Researchers use them to better understand :
