Overview
About AICAR (Acadesine).
AICAR is a small-molecule purine nucleoside (AMP/adenosine analog), not a peptide. Once inside cells it is phosphorylated by adenosine kinase to ZMP, an AMP-mimetic that binds the gamma-regulatory subunit of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and allosterically activates it, which is why it is widely used in research as an AMPK activator and "exercise-mimetic" tool compound.

FAQ
AICAR (Acadesine) — frequently asked by B2B buyers.
What exactly is AICAR, and is it a peptide?
AICAR (acadesine / AICA riboside, CAS 2627-69-2) is a small-molecule purine nucleoside, not a peptide. It is the widely used cell-permeable AMPK activator supplied as a research chemical. It ships as a lyophilized powder for research-use applications only.
What documentation ships with each lot?
Every lot ships with a Certificate of Analysis showing HPLC purity and mass-spec (MS) identity confirmation. Third-party COAs and additional analytical data can be provided on request for qualification and audit purposes.
What vial sizes and MOQ do you offer?
AICAR is stocked in 50 mg and 100 mg vials, with a minimum order quantity of 50 kits (500 vials). Bulk powder and alternative fill weights are available on RFQ for private-label and OEM programs.
Can you private-label or provide custom packaging?
Yes. We support OEM and private-label programs including custom vial labeling, fill weights, kitting and documentation. Contact us with your specifications for a quote and lead-time estimate.
What purity can I expect, and how is it verified?
Typical research-grade AICAR is supplied at high purity (commonly ≥99% by HPLC); the exact figure is stated per lot on the COA and confirmed by HPLC with MS identity. Specific specifications can be confirmed on RFQ.
