Sermorelin is an amidated 29-residue peptide corresponding to the active N-terminal region of human GHRH. The C-terminal amide is identity-defining.
Evidence at a glance
- PubChem lists formula C149H246N44O42S and molecular weight 3357.9 g/mol for Sermorelin.
- The sequence is YADAIFTNSYRKVLGQLSARKLLQDIMSR-NH2.
- A validated plasma LC-HRMS/MS method reported lower limits of detection below 50 pg/mL with recovery of 19–37% and imprecision below 20%.

Identity record
Free-base Sermorelin and Sermorelin acetate need separate mass and content accounting. The label should make clear whether the catalog amount refers to total material or peptide equivalent.
Analytical and evidence boundary
The 2016 detection study demonstrated analytical recovery from fortified human plasma for Sermorelin and related GHRH analogues. It was an anti-doping method-validation study, not a therapeutic efficacy study.
A complete lot record should combine sequence or high-resolution intact mass, chromatography, content basis, water and counterion information. A plasma detection limit does not substitute for product release specifications.
Editorial rule
State the exact material, form, model or population and endpoint supported by the cited record. Do not convert mechanistic plausibility, an animal result, an official finished-drug label or an analytical test into a claim about an unrelated catalog lot.
