DSIP 5 mg — Research Consultation
DSIP (Delta Sleep Inducing Peptide) is a nine-amino-acid neuropeptide isolated in the 1970s from rabbit cerebral venous blood during electrically-induced sleep states. Published research describes effects on delta-wave EEG activity, ACTH release, and circadian-rhythm modulation in animal-research and limited human-research contexts.
What DSIP is
DSIP (Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu) is a small endogenous neuropeptide originally extracted from cerebral venous blood of rabbits during stimulated sleep. The peptide is now produced synthetically for research use. The mechanism of action is incompletely characterised — no high-affinity DSIP receptor has been definitively identified.
What the published literature covers
Published animal-research describes DSIP effects on delta-wave EEG activity, modulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (including ACTH release), and stress-response endpoints. Human-research is limited — a small number of clinical-research papers describe effects on chronic-pain models and stress-related disorders, but the evidence base is modest compared to mainstream research peptides.
Quality verification
Lyophilised DSIP manufactured under ICH Q7 GMP standards. Independent HPLC verification at a US-based third-party laboratory, ≥98% peak-area purity. COA available through the in-chat consultation.
Common research questions
- Is DSIP legal in the UAE?
- DSIP is classified as a research compound in the UAE and is sold through standard wellness-supply channels with VAT compliance applied to every dispatch.
- What dose ranges does the published research describe?
- Published animal-research doses range from 25 to 100 nmol/kg. In the grey-research community, subcutaneous protocols of 100-500 mcg administered in the evening are common. The published human-research evidence base is too limited to support a consensus protocol.
- Is there a well-characterised receptor?
- No. Despite its name, no high-affinity DSIP receptor has been definitively identified in the published literature. This makes mechanistic interpretation of DSIP research more difficult than for peptides with clear receptor targets.
- How is purity verified?
- HPLC peak-area purity (≥98%) at a US-based third-party laboratory. COA available through the chat.
- Shelf life and storage?
- Lyophilised powder is ambient-temperature stable in transit; -20°C long-term storage; refrigerated post-reconstitution per the supplied protocol.
- How fast is delivery in the UAE?
- Same-day delivery within Dubai, next-business-day across the rest of the UAE.
