Description
DSIP Vial — Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide for Chronobiology Research (10mg)
What is DSIP?
Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide (DSIP) is a naturally occurring nonapeptide (9 amino acids) first isolated from the brain tissue of rabbits during slow-wave sleep studies. It is a neuropeptide found in the brain and peripheral tissues of many mammalian species.
DSIP is investigated for its role in sleep-wake regulation, circadian rhythm entrainment and stress-related neuroendocrine modulation. It is one of the earliest characterised sleep-related peptides and continues to be studied in chronobiology and neuropharmacology research.
Mechanism of Research Interest
- Sleep-Wake Modulation: Studied for effects on slow-wave (delta) sleep architecture and sleep quality parameters in animal models.
- Circadian Regulation: Research examines interactions with the hypothalamic systems that coordinate circadian rhythmicity.
- Neuroendocrine Crosstalk: DSIP is investigated for modulatory effects on stress hormone axes and pituitary signalling.
Research Applications
- Sleep architecture and delta wave research
- Circadian rhythm and chronobiology studies
- Stress response and neuroendocrine modulation
- Neuropeptide signalling research

Reconstitution Guidelines
For experienced laboratory personnel only. This lyophilised powder must be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water prior to research use.
- Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature (15–25°C) before reconstitution.
- Wipe the rubber stopper with an alcohol swab and allow it to dry.
- Using a sterile syringe, add the required volume of Bacteriostatic Water by injecting slowly down the inner wall of the vial — do not aim the stream directly at the lyophilised cake.
- Gently swirl the vial until the powder is fully dissolved. Do not shake vigorously, as this can denature the peptide.
- Visually inspect the reconstituted solution — it should be clear and free of particulate matter.
- Store reconstituted solutions at 2–8°C and use within the timeframe defined in your research protocol. Discard any unused solution after the recommended period.
