Delta-sleep-inducing peptide — a 9-residue endogenous neuropeptide isolated from cerebral venous blood during slow-wave sleep.
Delta-Sleep-Inducing Peptide (DSIP) is a 9-residue endogenous neuropeptide originally isolated from cerebral venous blood of sleeping rabbits. Despite the name, its primary research interest extends beyond sleep architecture into stress-response, opioid-receptor modulation, and circadian-axis pharmacology.
Each vial is lyophilized from acetate buffer, sealed under nitrogen, and shipped cold-chain at −20 °C from our Kelowna facility.
Slow-wave-sleep EEG modulation studies, opioid-receptor binding assays, ACTH/cortisol stress-response investigations, and circadian-clock gene-expression studies.

Allow vial to reach room temperature before opening (≥ 20 minutes). Reconstitute with 1.0–2.5 mL of sterile bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol). Inject solvent slowly down the inner wall of the vial; do not direct stream onto the lyophilized cake.
Swirl gently for 30 seconds. Do not vortex. Allow to dissolve for 5 minutes; clarity should be complete with no visible particulates.
Reconstituted solution is stable for 28 days at 2–8 °C in original vial. For longer storage, aliquot into low-binding tubes and hold at −80 °C; avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Discard if turbidity, color change, or particulate matter is observed.
