NA-Selank Amidate vs Mod GRF 1-29
A detailed comparison to help you understand the differences and choose the right peptide for your research goals.
NA-Selank Amidate
NA-Selank Amidate (N-Acetyl Selank Amidate) is an enhanced version of Selank with improved stability and blood-brain barrier penetration. The modifications increase bioavailability and duration of cognitive and anxiolytic effects.
Full details →Mod GRF 1-29
Mod GRF 1-29 (Modified GRF 1-29, also called CJC-1295 without DAC or Tetrasubstituted GRF 1-29) is a modified growth hormone-releasing hormone analog with improved stability over natural GHRH.
Full details →Side-by-Side Comparison
| Aspect | NA-Selank Amidate | Mod GRF 1-29 |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | Same core mechanism as Selank - modulates BDNF, serotonin, and norepinephrine systems. The N-acetyl group improves membrane permeability while the amidate modification increases enzymatic stability. | Binds to GHRH receptors in the pituitary gland to stimulate growth hormone release. Four amino acid substitutions improve resistance to enzymatic degradation while maintaining biological activity. |
| Typical Dosage | Intranasal: 100-400mcg 1-3 times daily. Lower doses needed compared to standard Selank due to enhanced bioavailability. | Typical dosing: 100-300mcg administered 2-3 times daily, usually combined with a GHRP like Ipamorelin for synergistic effects. |
| Administration | Primarily intranasal administration. Can be used sublingually. More stable in solution than standard Selank. | Subcutaneous injection. Best administered on empty stomach. Short half-life (~30 minutes) necessitates multiple daily doses, unlike DAC version. |
| Side Effects | Generally well-tolerated. Possible mild fatigue or nasal irritation. Less frequent dosing needed than standard Selank. | Flushing, headache, dizziness, and injection site reactions. Generally well-tolerated. May cause water retention. |
