What is CJC-1295 (no DAC)?
CJC-1295 (no DAC) is a synthetic linear peptide of 29 amino acids with an amidated C-terminus and a D-alanine at position 2. It is catalogued under CAS 863288-34-0 and PubChem CID 56841945, with the molecular formula C152H252N44O42 and a molecular weight of 3367.9 g/mol.1
The material described on this page is a synthetic peptide intended as a laboratory reagent.
Composition
The 29 residues are leucine (×5), alanine (×4), arginine (×3), glutamine (×3), serine (×3), aspartic acid (×2), isoleucine (×2), lysine (×2), tyrosine (×2), phenylalanine, threonine and valine. Counting a free amino end and an amidated carboxyl end, the peptide carries a calculated net charge of about plus four at pH 7.
The sequence contains no cysteine, methionine or tryptophan, the residues most prone to air oxidation in peptides.2
Handling
CJC-1295 (no DAC) is a dry solid as received in the laboratory. General handling guidance for lyophilized peptides applies.2
How each lot is tested
Each lot in the My Oasis Labs catalogue is tested by an independent third-party laboratory.3 The CJC-1295 (no DAC) certificate page names the testing laboratories and lists each lot's purity, net content and test date. Three measurements are reported.
Identity
Mass spectrometry
Checks that the measured molecular mass matches CJC-1295 (no DAC). The calculated monoisotopic mass is 3365.89 Da.1
A matching mass is consistent with the expected composition. It does not confirm the order of residues.
Purity
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
Separates the material from synthesis-related impurities. Purity is reported as the main peak's share of the total detected signal.
Reported per lot. The Oasis Labs specification is 99% or greater.
Quantity
Net content
Measures the mass of material actually present in the sample tested.
Reported per lot on the Certificate of Analysis.
Technical notes
What does the Certificate of Analysis confirm?
Identity by mass spectrometry, purity by HPLC, and the net content of the sample. Mass spectrometry confirms molecular mass, not the order of residues.
Why do molecular weights for CJC-1295 (no DAC) differ slightly between sources?
The figure of 3367.9 g/mol is for the form described in the cited PubChem record. Salt forms carry extra counter-ion mass and are often registered separately.
Why is the material freeze-dried?
Peptides are most stable as dry solids. Moisture reduces long-term stability, so the material is lyophilized and kept sealed until use in the laboratory.
CJC-1295 (no DAC) lot certificates
Each listed CJC-1295 (no DAC) lot has its own certificate covering identity, purity and net content.
