Potency loss over time
Estimated potency retained (%) per storage condition. Hover the chart for details.
⚠ Modelled per compound from molecular structure — chain length, cyclisation, oxidation- and deamidation-prone residues and light sensitivity. Indicative only, not lab-measured per batch.
Time in body
How much of a single dose remains over time, modelled from the terminal half-life. Illustrative — not a dosing tool.
Half-life ~1.0 h (literature estimate) · effectively cleared (~97%) after ~5.0 h (5 half-lives).
Research context only — not dosing guidance. · Source: Estimate ~1 h SC (afamelanotide implant differs)
