GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is supplied by PEPTIDE.Power as a laboratory research reference material intended strictly for in-vitro and laboratory research use only. It is a synthetic hexapeptide amide corresponding to the sequence His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2 (one-letter: HWAWFK-NH2), incorporating two D-configured aromatic residues (D-Trp at position 2 and D-Phe at position 5) that confer conformational rigidity and enhanced proteolytic stability relative to the all-L parent scaffold. The C-terminal lysine is present as a primary carboxamide (-NH2), a common feature of ghrelin-receptor-directed hexapeptide chemistry.

The identity of this reference material is defined by molecular formula C46H56N12O6, an average molecular weight of 873.0 g/mol, a monoisotopic mass of 872.4446 Da, and CAS Registry Number 87616-84-0. Additional cheminformatic descriptors include PubChem CID 4345065 and InChIKey WZHKXNSOCOQYQX-UHFFFAOYSA-N, with the canonical SMILES string CC(C(=O)NC(CC1=CNC2=CC=CC=C21)C(=O)NC(CC3=CC=CC=C3)C(=O)NC(CCCCN)C(=O)N)NC(=O)C(CC4=CNC5=CC=CC=C54)NC(=O)C(CC6=CN=CN6)N provided to support unambiguous structural verification, database cross-referencing, and library curation.

Physically, GHRP-6 is presented as a white to off-white lyophilized powder produced by solid-phase peptide synthesis and subsequent purification, with material released at not less than 98% purity by reversed-phase HPLC. Each lot is accompanied by a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis documenting HPLC purity, mass-spectrometric confirmation of the target molecular ion, sequence identity, appearance, and net peptide content, and is available on request to support analytical traceability and method development workflows.

The molecular composition offers several handles useful for analytical chemists and formulators working with reference standards: the imidazole side chain of the N-terminal histidine, two indole-bearing tryptophan residues that contribute characteristic UV absorbance near 280 nm, an aromatic phenylalanine, and a basic lysine epsilon-amine that influences net charge and reversed-phase retention behavior. These features make GHRP-6 a well-defined analyte for HPLC method qualification, LC-MS identity confirmation, calibration of peptide quantitation assays, and comparative characterization against related growth-hormone-secretagogue-class hexapeptides in published scientific literature that has examined GHRP-6 in preclinical, non-clinical research settings.

PEPTIDE.Power makes no therapeutic, diagnostic, or efficacy claims regarding GHRP-6 and provides no administration, dosing, preparation, or handling-for-use guidance. This material is not a drug, dietary supplement, cosmetic, or food, and it is not intended or authorized for human or veterinary use, injection, ingestion, inhalation, or topical application. GHRP-6 is offered solely as an identity- and purity-characterized reference substance for qualified investigators operating within appropriately controlled laboratory environments.
