TB-500 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from Thymosin Beta-4, a naturally occurring protein involved in actin regulation within cells. It's one of the most referenced research peptides in laboratory literature on cell migration, angiogenesis, and tissue repair models. Helix Bio's TB-500 is manufactured for laboratory use, supplied as a lyophilized powder, and backed by a certificate of analysis for every batch. It's intended strictly for qualified researchers, laboratories, and academic institutions studying cellular repair mechanisms — not for human or animal use.

TB-500 is a synthetic fragment of Thymosin Beta-4, a protein that occurs naturally in nearly every human and animal cell and plays a role in regulating actin, the protein responsible for cell structure and movement. Because of that actin-binding activity, TB-500 shows up frequently in published research on cell migration, angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation), and tissue repair pathways studied in muscle and vascular research models.
Helix Bio supplies TB-500 strictly as a research compound. It is not formulated, labeled, or sold as a drug, supplement, or finished pharmaceutical product, and no therapeutic claims are made about it.
Each vial contains lyophilized TB-500 peptide, manufactured under controlled laboratory conditions and verified through HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography) testing. Amino acid composition and molecular weight data are available on request for researchers documenting their protocols.
This product exists to support in vitro and in vivo laboratory research into cell migration, angiogenesis, and actin-cytoskeleton-related repair mechanisms. It's built for researchers who need a reliable, well-documented compound source — not for personal or consumer use.
TB-500 is another peptide where sourcing quality varies a lot between vendors — some sell it without any documented purity testing or batch traceability. Helix Bio pairs every batch with a certificate of analysis, uses cold-chain shipping to protect compound integrity in transit, and keeps the research-use-only disclaimer consistent across the site. If your lab needs to cite compound sourcing in a methods section, that documentation is the part that actually matters.
This product is not intended for personal use, human consumption, or administration of any kind outside a controlled research setting.

TB-500 appears across several areas of published laboratory research related to its actin-binding activity. Common research contexts include:
This information is provided for research and educational context only. Helix Bio does not make any claims about therapeutic, medical, or health outcomes for this compound, and none should be inferred from its research applications.
Helix Bio manufactures and tests TB-500 under laboratory-controlled conditions. Every batch is assigned a lot number, and compound identity and purity are verified through HPLC analysis before a batch is released for sale. A certificate of analysis is generated per batch and made available to the researcher at or before the time of purchase.
This documentation doesn't guarantee any particular research outcome — it confirms what's in the vial. Researchers who need to cite compound sourcing in a methods section, or who just want confidence in the material they're working with, can reference the COA directly.
Orders are packaged to protect compound integrity in transit, using cold-chain shipping practices appropriate for lyophilized research peptides. Vials arrive sealed and tamper-evident, with batch documentation included. For specific shipping timeframes, carrier details, or delivery regions, check Helix Bio's shipping policy page or contact customer support directly, as these details can change.
