Short answer
Recovery research peptides are compounds studied in tissue-repair and inflammation models. The group covers BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, thymosin alpha 1 and ARA-290. Most of the published work is in cell and animal models.
What are recovery research peptides?
Recovery research peptides are compounds studied in tissue-repair and inflammation models. The group covers BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, thymosin alpha 1 and ARA-290. Most of the published work is in cell and animal models.
BPC-157 and TB-500 are the two most searched compounds in this group. Most of their published research is in rodents and cells; thymosin alpha-1 and ARA-290 have small controlled human trials.
Which compounds are in this group?

| ARA-290 | 11-amino-acid peptide derived from the helix B surface of erythropoietin, described as a non-erythropoietic innate repair receptor ligand | 10mg | A$85 |
| BPC-157 | Synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide described as a fragment of a gastric juice protein (BPC) | 5mg | A$81 |
| KPV | Tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val) matching the C-terminal residues 11-13 of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone | 10mg | A$58 |
| TB-500 | Synthetic N-acetylated heptapeptide (Ac-LKKTETQ) matching residues 17-23 of mature thymosin beta-4 | 10mg | A$98 |
| Thymosin Alpha 1 | Synthetic N-acetylated 28-amino-acid peptide (thymalfasin) identical to human thymosin alpha 1 | 10mg | A$118 |
How do these compounds differ?
The five compounds share a research theme but have unrelated structures and origins.
| COMPOUND | CLASS | AUSTRALIA | WADA 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ARA-290 | 11-amino-acid peptide derived from the helix B surface of erythropoietin, described as a non-erythropoietic innate repair receptor ligand | Not named | Not named |

How is each batch tested?
Every batch is tested by an independent lab, [lab], before it goes on sale: purity by HPLC and identity by mass spectrometry. The certificate is published under the batch number printed on the vial.
Search any batch number in the certificate library. The testing page explains each method and its limits.
Are these peptides legal in Australia?
Legal status depends on the compound. 13 of the 28 research compounds in this range are listed in Schedule 4 of the Poisons Standard (prescription only), counting tesamorelin under the group entry for growth hormone-releasing hormones. 7 are also listed in Appendix D clause 5, which makes possession without authority an offence. The rest are not named in the Poisons Standard. Each product page states its compound's status, and Peptides Collective sells every product for laboratory research use only.
The legal guide explains each schedule, Appendix D and the WADA list.
How should they be stored?
Store sealed lyophilised vials frozen (about -20 degrees Celsius), dry and dark. Keep reconstituted solutions at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius and avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
BAC Water (sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol) is the usual laboratory solvent. Dilute acetic acid is the alternative for peptides that dissolve poorly in water. Each product page names the solvent for its compound.
The storage guide and reconstitution guide cover laboratory handling.

How are they shipped?
Orders ship tracked from Western Australia. Orders placed before [cut-off] leave the same business day. Delivery estimates for each state are on the shipping page.
Which compound in this group has the most research?
Thymosin alpha-1, with controlled human trials. BPC-157 has the largest animal literature, much of it from one research group.
Do these compounds share a solvent?
BAC Water (sterile water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol) is the usual laboratory solvent. Dilute acetic acid is the alternative for peptides that dissolve poorly in water. Each product page names the solvent for its compound.
