Product overview
Cerebrolysin 60mg/6vials is a research-grade preparation of low-molecular-weight peptide fragments derived from porcine brain tissue. The preparation has been studied in preclinical neurotrophic and neuroprotection models, where the active components are characterized as small peptide fragments and free amino acids with neurotrophic-factor-like activity profiles.
Independently assayed and lot-traceable.
Mechanism
The Cerebrolysin preparation is composed predominantly of low-molecular-weight peptides (under 10 kDa) derived by enzymatic hydrolysis of standardized porcine brain protein. Preclinical literature describes activity consistent with endogenous neurotrophic factors — including effects on neuronal survival, neurite outgrowth, and synaptic plasticity in cell-culture models. In animal models of ischemia and traumatic injury the preparation has been studied for neuroprotective endpoints.
The exact identity of the active species remains a subject of research; the preparation is characterized as a mixture rather than a single molecule.
Typical research dose range
Preclinical neuroprotection protocols typically use Cerebrolysin in the range of 2.5-30 mg/kg in animal models, administered parenterally over multi-day study windows. Human clinical trial dosing has used 10-50 mL of the standard 215 mg/mL preparation per day — the research-grade SKU here is supplied in a different presentation, and researchers should compute working volume from the labeled mass per vial.
Reconstitution and storage
This product is supplied as a sterile solution rather than a lyophilized powder — no reconstitution is required prior to use. Use sterile technique when withdrawing volume.
Store at 2-8 °C in the original sealed vial. Protect from light. Do not freeze — freezing degrades the peptide mixture. Once a vial has been punctured, discard any unused portion within 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions
Is this product for human consumption?
No. This product is sold strictly for laboratory research use only. It is not a drug, food, cosmetic, or dietary supplement and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Why is this not lyophilized?
The Cerebrolysin preparation is supplied as a sterile aqueous solution because lyophilization of the porcine-derived peptide mixture is not part of the standardized manufacturing process. The solution form preserves the characterized mixture profile.
Do you ship internationally?
This SKU ships from our Canadian fulfillment facility to addresses within Canada. International availability varies by region — see our shipping policy for current routing.
What is the shelf life of an unopened vial?
Properly stored at 2-8 °C and protected from light in the original sealed vial, this product retains its specification for 24 months from the date of manufacture. The expiration date is printed on each vial.
