Buy Lipo-C Research Compound | Pure Lipotropic MIC+B12 Blend | PrimaLab Peptide

Lipo-C (LC216) is a sterile multi-compound lipotropic research blend combining four compounds — Methionine, Inositol, Choline Chloride, and Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12) — into a single ready-to-use aqueous research solution. Researchers who buy Lipo-C research compound use it to investigate lipid metabolism, hepatic lipid transport, phospholipid synthesis, cellular methylation pathways, and the synergistic metabolic effects of combined lipotropic compound administration in laboratory research models. PrimaLab Peptide supplies research-grade Lipo-C at ≥99.1% purity across active components, independently verified by Janoshik Analytical via HPLC and identity verification, with a full batch-specific Certificate of Analysis included with every order.

An important classification note: Lipo-C is not a peptide in the strict biochemical sense. It is a multi-compound lipotropic research blend categorised alongside research peptides at PrimaLab Peptide because of its directly overlapping applications in lipid metabolism and metabolic research, where it is frequently studied alongside peptide-based metabolic compounds such as AOD9604, 5-Amino-1MQ, and Glutathione.

What Is Lipo-C (LC216)?

Lipo-C is a compounded lipotropic solution containing four distinct research compounds at defined concentrations in a sterile aqueous vehicle:

• Methionine (12.4 mg/mL): An essential sulphur-containing amino acid that serves as the principal methyl group donor in one-carbon metabolism through its role as a precursor to S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) — the universal methyl donor in methylation reactions. In lipid metabolism research, methionine is studied for its role in phosphatidylcholine synthesis, hepatic lipid export via VLDL, and prevention of hepatic fat accumulation in research models. Methionine’s role in methylation biochemistry is reviewed in published PubMed research on methionine and lipid metabolism
• Inositol (25 mg/mL): A carbocyclic sugar that serves as a structural basis for phosphoinositide second messenger systems and is a component of phosphatidylinositol — a key membrane phospholipid. Inositol is studied in research models for its role in lipid signalling through the PI3K/Akt pathway, hepatic lipid metabolism, insulin signalling, and cellular membrane biology
• Choline Chloride (25 mg/mL): An essential nutrient and precursor to acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine. In lipid metabolism research, choline is studied for its critical role in phosphatidylcholine synthesis — essential for VLDL assembly and hepatic lipid export — as well as one-carbon metabolism interactions with methionine through the betaine pathway. Choline deficiency is a standard model of hepatic steatosis (fatty liver) in preclinical research. The NIH’s Office of Dietary Supplements Choline reference provides detailed background
• Cyanocobalamin B12 (1 mg/mL): The stable synthetic form of Vitamin B12 (cobalamin). B12 is an essential cofactor in two key metabolic reactions: methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (odd-chain fatty acid metabolism) and methionine synthase (converting homocysteine back to methionine in the methylation cycle). In the context of the Lipo-C blend, B12 supports the methionine cycle and one-carbon metabolism research applications alongside methionine and choline

Lipo-C Research Applications

The four-compound lipotropic blend in Lipo-C covers multiple intersecting research areas in lipid metabolism and cellular biochemistry:

• Hepatic lipid metabolism research: The methionine-choline combination has been used in research models to study hepatic lipid export mechanisms, VLDL assembly and secretion, and hepatic steatosis prevention mechanisms. The methionine-choline-deficient (MCD) diet model — studied by comparing normal vs. deficient conditions — is a standard preclinical model for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) research
• One-carbon and methylation pathway research: Methionine, choline, and B12 are all interconnected through the one-carbon metabolic network, making Lipo-C a practical research tool for studying methylation capacity, SAM/SAH ratios, and homocysteine metabolism in cell culture research models
• Phospholipid synthesis research: Choline and inositol are key precursors to phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol respectively — major components of cellular membranes and lipid signalling cascades. Research examining phospholipid metabolism, membrane biology, and lipid signalling uses both compounds extensively
• Lipid signalling pathway research: Inositol-derived phosphoinositides (PI3P, PI4P, PIP2, PIP3) are central second messengers in insulin signalling, cell growth, and survival pathways — making inositol a research tool in PI3K/Akt pathway studies
• B12 cofactor metabolism research: Cyanocobalamin provides B12 cofactor activity for methylmalonyl-CoA mutase and methionine synthase research in cell culture systems, relevant to studies of organic acid metabolism and the methionine cycle
• Combined lipotropic effects research: The combination of all four compounds allows research into the synergistic or additive effects of simultaneous methionine, inositol, choline, and B12 supplementation on lipid metabolism — research that complements single-compound lipid metabolism studies using 5-Amino-1MQ (NNMT inhibitor) and Glutathione (redox balance) in broader metabolic research programs

Ready-to-Use Solution — No Reconstitution Required

Unlike lyophilized research peptides such as BPC-157 or Semaglutide that require reconstitution with BAC Water, Lipo-C is supplied as a ready-to-use sterile aqueous solution in a 10ml multi-dose septum vial. No reconstitution step is required — simply maintain correct storage conditions, use proper aseptic technique, and inspect the solution before each use.

This format also means Lipo-C should not be frozen — freezing can cause components to crash out of solution, altering the concentration balance of the formulation. Unlike lyophilized peptides which require −20°C freezer storage, Lipo-C requires refrigerated storage at 2–8°C throughout its shelf life.

Purity & Third-Party Testing

Every batch of Lipo-C supplied by PrimaLab Peptide is independently tested by Janoshik Analytical:

• HPLC — quantitative purity determination confirmed at ≥99.1% across active components
• Identity verification — confirmation of all four active components (Methionine, Inositol, Choline, Cyanocobalamin)

The batch-specific COA is included with every order. Batch numbers and exact purity figures may vary slightly between lots — always check the COA for your specific vial batch number before use in research. COAs are posted per batch and are not recycled from previous lots.

Storage Guidelines

Correct storage for Lipo-C differs from lyophilized peptide storage — this is a sterile aqueous solution, not a freeze-dried powder:

• Storage temperature: 2–8°C (standard lab refrigerator) — do not freeze. Freezing can precipitate components out of solution
• Light protection: Store away from direct light — cyanocobalamin (B12) is light-sensitive and can degrade with UV exposure
• Upon receipt: Refrigerate immediately on arrival — do not leave at room temperature for extended periods
• Aseptic technique: Use proper aseptic technique every time a sample is drawn from the multi-dose vial. Maintain needle sterility and clean the septum with an alcohol swab before each puncture
• Inspection before use: Inspect the solution before each research use — discard any vial showing cloudiness, visible particulates, or discolouration. Clear, colourless to light pink (from B12) solution is expected
• Shelf life: Up to 24 months at recommended 2–8°C storage when sealed
