Independent Peptide Reference & Lab Tools
Know the compound
before you touch the vial.
Aurelius Research Lab is a free, sign-in-free reference bench: 63 documented compounds, goal-based protocols, and the handling maths that decides whether a study is worth repeating. Written for qualified researchers, for research purposes only.
The science
What a peptide actually is
Before any protocol makes sense, the vocabulary has to. Four ideas cover almost everything you will read on this site.
Short chains of amino acids
A peptide is a sequence of amino acids too short to be called a protein. That small size is the whole point: it is specific enough to carry one message and short enough to be synthesised to a known standard.
They behave like a signal
Most research peptides work by binding a receptor and asking the cell to do something it already knows how to do. Nothing is introduced that the body has no pathway for.
Narrow by design
Sequence determines target. Change one residue and the affinity, the half-life and the downstream effect all move with it, which is why our entries list sequence-level detail.
Handling decides the outcome
Reconstitution volume, storage temperature and draw technique change the delivered dose more than most people expect. Every protocol here treats handling as part of the science.
Research assistant
Start from the goal, not the compound
Pick the outcome you are studying and the assistant assembles a starting protocol from the referenced compounds, with the reasoning shown.
Reference library
Every compound, in plain language
63 entries across eight research categories. Mechanism, dosing range, half-life, stacking notes and handling on a single page.
Protocol & stack guide
Combinations, with the reasoning attached
71 goal-based stacks covering metabolic, recovery, performance, cognitive and longevity research. Each one lists the compounds, the dosing schedule, the overlap to watch for, and the nutritional support that appears alongside it in the literature.
What a stack entry contains
- Compound list with individual dose ranges
- Weekly schedule and injection timing
- Why the combination is used together
- Overlap, contraindication and monitoring notes
- Diet and supplement context
Free lab tool
Mix it right, every single time
Enter the vial strength, the bacteriostatic water you plan to add and the dose you are targeting. The calculator returns the concentration, the exact draw volume and the marking to stop at on a standard insulin syringe. No account, no email, nothing stored.
Your compound & mix
- Vial strength
- 10 mg
- BAC water added

Draw this much

0.05 mL on a 100-unit insulin syringe, at 5 mg/mL.
Example figures shown for illustration. Run your own numbers in the calculator.
Handling & protocols
The part most references skip
A compound is only as good as the way it is prepared, stored and delivered. These guides cover the bench work in detail.
Everything on the bench
Six tools, all of them free
Nothing here is gated, and nothing here is for sale. The whole lab is open.
Why this exists
Reference first, everything else second
Most peptide information online is attached to something being sold. Aurelius Research Lab is deliberately the opposite: a reference bench that stays useful whether or not you ever buy anything, from anyone. The tools are free, the protocols are written out in full, and the limits of the evidence are stated rather than glossed over.
“If it is not right, do not do it. If it is not true, do not say it.”
