MOLECULAR PROFILE

What Is IGF-1 LR3?

IGF-1 LR3 is an 83-amino-acid analogue of human IGF-1 with two engineered changes: a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension and substitution of glutamic acid at position 3 with arginine (the "R3" of the name). Vorix Labs supplies IGF-1 LR3 as a research catalog item with Janoshik Analytical batch CoA documentation and USA warehouse fulfillment. Laboratory / in-vitro use only — not for human or veterinary use.

IGF-1 LR3 is an 83-amino-acid analogue of human IGF-1 with two engineered changes: a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension and substitution of glutamic acid at position 3 with arginine (the "R3" of the name). These modifications reduce binding to insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (especially IGFBP-3) roughly 100-fold versus native IGF-1, which extends circulating half-life in research models from minutes to approximately 20–30 hours. Signaling at the IGF-1 receptor (PI3K/Akt and MAPK pathways) is preserved.

IGF-1 LR3 is a long-R3 IGF-1 analog frequently ordered for cell-culture and receptor studies. Targets “buy IGF-1 LR3 research peptide” with CoA-backed USA stock.

FAQ

IGF-1 LR3 — common research questions

Straight answers for researchers comparing purity, CoA documentation, kits, and shipping.

Is IGF-1 LR3 for research use only?

Yes. IGF-1 LR3 from Vorix Labs is sold strictly for laboratory / in vitro research. It is not for human or veterinary use and is not evaluated by the U.S. FDA for any clinical purpose.

Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis for IGF-1 LR3?

Every Vorix batch is identity-verified with a Janoshik Analytical Certificate of Analysis (CoA). CoA access is available on the product page and through our CoA library for researchers who need batch documentation.

Can I buy IGF-1 LR3 as a single vial or a kit of 10?

Yes. Most catalog SKUs offer a single vial and a kit-of-10 option with kit pricing when inventory supports a full kit. Select the package size on the product page before adding to cart.

Where does Vorix Labs ship IGF-1 LR3 from?

Orders ship from our USA warehouse with domestic fulfillment. Standard shipping is free on qualifying orders of $250+.
