Molecular Structure

Product Description:

5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic small-molecule compound belonging to the quinolinium chemical class. This product is supplied in an encapsulated solid format to support controlled handling, storage, and measurement within laboratory research environments.

Unlike peptide-based materials, 5-Amino-1MQ is produced via chemical synthesis and is not composed of amino acid chains. The encapsulated format is provided solely as a physical containment method and does not imply any route of administration. This material is intended exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research conducted by qualified professionals.

Research Applications:
  • In-vitro evaluation of small-molecule behavior in biochemical or enzymatic assay systems
  • Laboratory investigation of structure–activity relationships of quinolinium derivatives
  • Analytical method development involving non-peptide research compounds
  • Comparative studies of small-molecule analogs under controlled experimental conditions
Storage and Handling:
  • Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct light
  • Maintain container tightly sealed when not in use
  • Handle using appropriate laboratory safety and aseptic techniques
Product Specifications:
  • Analytical Approach to Finished Formulations: Purity is a metric used for isolated raw materials, such as lyophilized peptide powders. Finished formulations—such as capsules, liquids, and topicals—contain multiple components, including excipients and stabilizers. In these systems, a single purity value does not accurately represent the overall composition. Instead, identity and assay (content) are reported on the COA to confirm the presence of the correct compound and to verify that the labeled amount per unit is accurate. This approach reflects standard analytical practice and provides more meaningful information for research applications.
  • Format: Encapsulated solid research material
  • Appearance: White to off-white solid
  • Solubility: Soluble in water and polar organic solvents (following capsule removal for analysis)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 5-Amino-1MQ?
5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic small-molecule compound of the quinolinium chemical class, supplied as the iodide salt (5-amino-1-methylquinolinium iodide, molecular formula C10H11IN2, molecular weight approximately 286.11 g/mol; the active 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium cation is C10H11N2+). It is produced by chemical synthesis and supplied as a lyophilized solid in vial and encapsulated formats strictly for in vitro laboratory research.
Is 5-Amino-1MQ a peptide?
No. Despite often being grouped with research peptides, 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium derivative, not a peptide - it is not composed of amino acid chains. It is produced via chemical synthesis and studied as a small-molecule research compound.
What does 5-Amino-1MQ do in research?
In controlled laboratory settings, 5-Amino-1MQ is studied as a small-molecule modulator of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), used in in vitro evaluation of small-molecule behavior in enzymatic and biochemical assay systems and in comparative studies of small-molecule analogs. All applications are in vitro and non-clinical.
What are its chemical specifications, and what size does it come in?
5-Amino-1MQ is supplied as the iodide salt, molecular formula C10H11IN2, molecular weight approximately 286.11 g/mol (refer to the lot-specific Certificate of Analysis for the exact value). It is available as a lyophilized solid in vial format (10 mg and 50 mg) and in encapsulated solid format (50 mg per capsule). The vial and capsule formats are physical containment and presentation methods only and do not imply any route of administration. Store in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture.
Where can I buy 5-Amino-1MQ, and is it third-party tested?
5-Amino-1MQ is available from Pure Health Peptides as research-grade material in vials (10 mg and 50 mg) and capsules (50 mg). Every production lot is third-party tested in the US, with a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis available for verification.
Is 5-Amino-1MQ intended for human or clinical use?
No. 5-Amino-1MQ is for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary use. It has not been evaluated by the FDA and is not a drug, food, cosmetic, or dietary supplement. It is supplied only to qualified research professionals for in vitro laboratory research, and KYC verification is required prior to fulfillment. Any use outside of controlled in vitro research is strictly prohibited.
