The short version
- MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded in mitochondrial DNA rather than in the cell nucleus, which is what makes it unusual. It was described in 2015.
- It is not approved by Health Canada, and there is no prescription version anywhere.
- We stock it in two sizes, a 20mg vial and a 40mg vial, both lyophilized powder.
- Every batch is tested by an outside lab. The report is on this page before you ask for it.
- Ships from inside Canada. No customs, no border risk.
What arrives
A sealed 20mg or 40mg vial of lyophilized powder. Freeze-dried, so it is a solid cake or thin film at the bottom of the glass, not a liquid. Capped and labelled with the compound, the size and the batch number that matches the lab report.
How to read our lab report
Every batch goes to an outside laboratory before it is listed. The report gives two numbers that matter. Purity is how much of what is in the vial is the compound you paid for. Mass is how much material is actually in the vial. Purity is the number every supplier quotes; mass is the one many skip, and it is the one that catches underfilling. A vial labelled 10mg that measures 10mg or more was not shorted. A vial that measures 8mg is, whatever its purity says.
Ask any supplier for both numbers on the batch you are being sold, not a sample batch from last year. Ours included. The current report for this product is further down this page.
Sizes and price
| Size | Price | Cost per mg |
|---|
| 20mg | $99.99 Original price was: $99.99.$69.99Current price is: $69.99. | $3.50 |
| 40mg (out of stock) | $169.99 Original price was: $169.99.$119.00Current price is: $119.00. | $2.98 |
The larger size costs less per milligram. That is the only difference. Same compound, same batch testing, same lab.

Shipping and payment
Orders leave from inside Canada, so nothing crosses a border and nothing gets held at customs. Express shipping is free over $250. Below that it is a flat rate shown at checkout. Payment is by Interac e-Transfer. Tracking is sent by email once the carrier has the parcel.
Where MOTS-c stands in Canada
MOTS-c is not approved by Health Canada as a medicine. It is not prescribed here, and no pharmacy stocks it. It is supplied here as laboratory material for research use only. The research, in plain English: MOTS-c peptide: a guide for Canada.
Questions people ask before buying MOTS-c in Canada
Which MOTS-c size should I pick, 20mg or 40mg?
Pick the 20mg vial for a smaller or shorter study. Pick the 40mg vial if your work uses more, since published MOTS-c research tends to use larger amounts than most peptides. The 40mg also costs less per milligram. Both prices are in the table above.
Where do you ship MOTS-c from?
From inside Canada, by express courier. Free over $250, flat rate below. Payment by Interac e-Transfer.
How do I check the MOTS-c lab report?
Purity and mass for the batch you are buying, on the Janoshik report on this page. A vial that measures at or above its label weight was not shorted.

Why purity can differ a little between batches
Each batch is freeze-dried (lyophilized) in its own run. Small differences between runs and machines, such as temperature, drying time and the moisture left in the powder, affect how well the peptide holds up, and each raw peptide lot varies slightly too. The lab test (HPLC) also has a small margin from one run to the next. So one batch can read 99.8% and the next 98.6%, and both meet our 98% standard. That is why we send every batch to the same lab, Janoshik, and publish each report instead of quoting one best number. Some sellers never test at all, or show a report that was run for another company’s product with their own name on it. A report should match the product, the batch and the seller.
