Description
Product Description
SlimAssist is a dual-component research formulation developed for laboratory investigations into skeletal muscle preservation during metabolic intervention studies. Designed exclusively for research applications, each lyophilized vial contains two carefully characterized compounds that support reproducible in vitro and preclinical research.
Component 1 — FLGR242 (2 mg)
FLGR242 is a recombinant, engineered fragment of Follistatin-344 developed to selectively target myostatin while minimizing interactions with activin pathways commonly associated with conventional follistatin analogs. This selective binding profile makes it a valuable research tool for investigating muscle growth regulation and protein metabolism.
The peptide incorporates a proprietary albumin-binding domain with high serum albumin affinity (Kd <20 nM), extending its circulating half-life to approximately 19 days in experimental models. This prolonged stability allows researchers to evaluate long-duration study protocols while maintaining consistent target engagement.
Component 2 — Vitamin B Complex (500 mcg)
The accompanying research-grade vitamin complex contains Vitamins B6 and B12, with Vitamin B6 serving as the primary component. These vitamins are commonly utilized in laboratory research examining cofactor-dependent metabolic pathways, mitochondrial activity, amino acid metabolism, and cellular energy production.
Research Applications
When combined, FLGR242 and the Vitamin B Complex provide a research platform for investigating skeletal muscle maintenance in experimental models where increased muscle protein breakdown occurs during metabolic intervention, including studies involving GLP-1 receptor agonist compounds.
Every batch is manufactured in a US GMP-compliant facility and undergoes comprehensive third-party analytical testing with full Certificates of Analysis (COAs) to ensure purity, identity, and consistency for laboratory research.
