The Eon standard
Your results are only as good as your compound. Every lot of GLP-1 S is tested by an independent ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab in the USA. 99%+ purity isn't a target here. It's the requirement. Don't take our word for it: test any vial at an accredited lab of your choice. If HPLC purity comes back under 99%, we refund your order and pay for the test.
GLP-1 S is a selective GLP-1 receptor agonist peptide. Its sequence is about 94 percent identical to the endogenous GLP-1 hormone, with one change that resists enzymatic cleavage. Research has measured insulin release, appetite signalling and gastric emptying. A fatty acid chain lets it bind albumin, which extends its half-life.

The pathways GLP-1 S acts on - and what each one does. The animation traces its signal outward from the compound to every target it engages.
Selectively binds GLP-1 receptors. Published characterisation describes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, glucagon suppression and delayed gastric emptying in study models. Insulin response scales with glucose, a property examined relative to non-incretin secretagogues.
Engages GLP-1 receptors in the hypothalamus and hindbrain, with hunger, satiety and energy intake as the measured endpoints.
A C18 fatty-diacid chain confers reversible albumin binding and resistance to DPP-4 degradation, extending the plasma half-life to roughly 7 days in research models.
The main areas GLP-1 S is being studied for - and the study-reported figures behind them.
GLP-1 receptor agonism is a principal focus of metabolic research, and GLP-1 S is a selective agonist used as a reference compound in that work.
GLP-1 S is studied for glucose-dependent insulin secretion and glycemic endpoints in metabolic research.
Cardiometabolic signalling is a further area of research interest for this receptor class, beyond glucose handling.
GLP-1 receptor signaling in the hypothalamus and hindbrain modulates satiety and food-reward pathways, a focus of ongoing neuroscience research.

GLP-1 S is a long-acting and selective GLP-1 receptor agonist. It mimics the incretin hormone GLP-1; published characterisation describes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, glucagon suppression, delayed gastric emptying and central appetite-pathway signalling.
GLP-1 S is a single-receptor (GLP-1) agonist. GLP-2 TZ is a dual GLP-1/GIP agonist, and GLP-3 RT is a triple GLP-1/GIP/glucagon agonist. The distinction is receptor coverage.
GLP-1 S has a molecular weight of 4,113.58 g/mol. Every vial is supplied at ≥99% purity, verified by HPLC, with a Certificate of Analysis included.
Store lyophilized vials at -20°C for long-term stability, protected from light and moisture.
