Cartalax

Compound Overview

Research Use Only. Not for Human Consumption.

Cartalax is supplied by Nexus as a sequence-defined short peptide bioregulator for controlled in-vitro research and analytical workflows. The sourced chemistry record identifies Cartalax as Ala-Glu-Asp, abbreviated AED, a 3-residue synthetic peptide associated with cartilage and connective-tissue research models.

Cartalax is categorized in the Nexus catalog under Russian Bioregulators. The current Nexus variant is a 20mg research-size vial under SKU LAX20. The available source record supports its peptide sequence, classification, molecular formula, calculated molecular weight, physical form, intended use, and storage guidance. It does not provide a confirmed CAS number, lot-specific purity value, salt or counter-ion assignment, batch number, or Certificate of Analysis values.

Because the current product record is intentionally limited, this description is limited as well. It does not infer therapeutic properties, dosing information, biological outcomes, mechanism-specific findings, or compound-specific handling details beyond the facts included in the research record.

Research Background & Published Literature

The available literature for Cartalax is concentrated in Russian and Eastern European bioregulator research. For this product record, the strongest usable chemistry anchor is the defined amino-acid sequence: Ala-Glu-Asp. That sequence provides the basis for the calculated molecular formula and molecular weight listed in the technical specifications below.

Cartalax is identified in the supplied research data as a Khavinson short peptide bioregulator associated with cartilage and connective-tissue research models. The provided record does not include detailed experimental abstracts, validated mechanism-specific findings, in-vitro assay conditions, or lot-level release analytics. For that reason, this page avoids unsupported statements about biological effects and treats the AED sequence, classification, physical form, and computed chemistry values as the primary verified descriptors.

Researchers reviewing the literature around this compound can use the peer-reviewed resources below for additional context on mechanism of action, signaling pathways, and controlled laboratory research applications:

Storage, Handling & Stability Guidelines

Store lyophilized Cartalax material at -20°C, desiccated, and protected from light. These are the only Cartalax-specific storage parameters included in the current research record.

After reconstitution, aliquot the material and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The source record does not specify a reconstitution solvent, target concentration, post-reconstitution hold time, validated stability window, acceptable number of freeze-thaw events, or container-closure compatibility. Those details should not be inferred from this page.

Laboratories should document handling conditions according to their own validated internal procedures and preserve traceability between aliquots, source vial, and lot-level verification records. The absence of a provided stability study means this description should be treated as a conservative storage summary rather than a complete stability protocol.

Lab Verification

Nexus maintains a Lab Verified reference area for research-compound verification records. Where current lot documentation is available, HPLC may be used to review chromatographic purity and Mass Spectrometry may be used to support molecular identity confirmation.

No exact Cartalax COA values are included in the current product record. This page therefore does not list a batch number, purity percentage, chromatographic retention time, measured mass, salt form, counter-ion, or release-test result. The current research warning is to confirm final CAS, salt or counter-ion, purity, and mass values against the supplier COA before relying on a specific batch for analytical work.
