3Composition / information on ingredients
Lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder or cake in a sealed glass vial with a rubber stopper and aluminium crimp cap.
| Ingredient | CAS No. | Formula | Concentration | Quantity | Ingredient classification |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5-Amino-1MQ 5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium iodide (NNMT inhibitor); small molecule, not a peptide | 42464-96-0 | C10H11IN2 | ≥ 95% (dry basis, as supplied) | 5 mg, 50 mg per vial | Acute tox. oral 4 · H302 Skin irrit. 2 · H315 Eye irrit. 2A · H319 STOT SE 3 · H335 |
Peptides are supplied as the acetate or trifluoroacetate salt unless stated otherwise; the counter-ion and residual water make up the balance of a lyophilized product. Concentration limits used for mixture classification follow OSHA HCS 2012 Appendix A.
4First-aid measures
| Inhalation | Move the person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult or symptoms persist, call a POISON CENTER or doctor. |
|---|---|
| Skin contact | Take off contaminated clothing. Wash the skin with plenty of soap and water. If irritation or a rash develops, get medical advice. |
| Eye contact | Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do; continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists, get medical advice. |
| Ingestion | Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. Call a POISON CENTER or doctor if you feel unwell. |
| Most important symptoms and effects | Skin redness or irritation; eye redness, watering and irritation; coughing and irritation of the nose and throat after inhaling dust; nausea, vomiting and other systemic effects after ingestion. |
| Indication of immediate medical attention | Treat symptomatically. Show this safety data sheet to the attending physician. No specific antidote is known; monitor for the effects described in Section 11. |
5Fire-fighting measures
| Suitable extinguishing media | Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical or alcohol-resistant foam. Use measures appropriate to the surrounding fire. |
|---|---|
| Unsuitable extinguishing media | None known. Do not use a high-pressure water jet on powders (dust dispersion). |
| Specific hazards | Combustible organic solid; finely divided powder may form dust clouds. Not flammable in the quantities supplied. Thermal decomposition may release carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides. |
| Protective equipment for fire-fighters | Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Prevent run-off from entering drains. |
6Accidental release measures
| Personal precautions | Wear the protective equipment in Section 8. Keep unprotected people away. Avoid dust formation and inhalation of dust. |
|---|---|
| Environmental precautions | Do not allow material to reach drains, surface water or soil. Quantities supplied are small; collect for disposal. |
| Methods for cleaning up | Avoid dust formation. Dampen spilled powder with water, wipe up with absorbent material, place in a sealed container for disposal and clean the area with water and detergent. Decontaminate surfaces with 70% alcohol or detergent and water. |
7Handling and storage
| Precautions for safe handling | Open vials only in a clean area. Avoid generating or inhaling dust; weigh or reconstitute inside a ventilated enclosure when the full contents are handled as a dry powder. Reconstitute by adding diluent slowly to the vial wall; do not shake. Wash hands after handling. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the handling area. Follow the precautionary statements in Section 2. |
|---|---|
| Conditions for safe storage | Store the sealed vial at the temperature stated in Section 9 (typically −20 °C for peptides, 2–8 °C for proteins), desiccated and protected from light. Allow the vial to reach room temperature before opening to avoid condensation. Reconstituted solutions: 2–8 °C, protected from light; use within the period established by your laboratory. Keep the container tightly closed and labelled, out of reach of unauthorised persons (store locked up). |
| Storage temperature | −20 °C (sealed vial), desiccated and protected from light; 2–8 °C acceptable for short periods |
| Incompatible materials | Strong oxidising agents, strong acids and bases. |
8Exposure controls / personal protection
| Occupational exposure limits | No occupational exposure limits (OSHA PEL, ACGIH TLV, NIOSH REL) have been established for any ingredient. |
|---|---|
| Engineering controls | Good general laboratory ventilation. Weigh or manipulate dry powder in a ventilated enclosure (powder hood, biosafety cabinet or fume hood). An eyewash station should be available. |
| Eye / face protection | Safety glasses with side shields (ANSI Z87.1 / EN 166). |
| Skin protection | Nitrile gloves (inspect before use; change after contamination) and a laboratory coat. |
| Respiratory protection | Not normally required with the engineering controls above. Where dust cannot be controlled, use a NIOSH-approved N95 (or P2) particulate respirator. |
| Hygiene measures | Wash hands after handling and before breaks. Remove contaminated clothing. Do not pipette by mouth. |

12Ecological information
5-Amino-1MQ: No ecotoxicity data located. Sigma-Aldrich assigns WGK 3 (highly hazardous to water) by self-assessment, which is a default for data-poor substances rather than a measured result; do not let the product reach drains.
Persistence and degradability: peptides and amino acids are expected to biodegrade readily; benzyl alcohol is readily biodegradable (92–96% in 14 days, OECD 301C). Bioaccumulative potential: low (hydrophilic, log Pow < 3 where known). Mobility in soil: water-soluble; mobile. PBT/vPvB: not expected to meet the criteria. Other adverse effects: none known. Do not release concentrated material to the environment.
13Disposal considerations
Dispose of unused material and contaminated packaging through a licensed chemical-waste contractor in accordance with federal (40 CFR 261), state and local regulations; the material is not a listed RCRA hazardous waste but is classified as hazardous for supply and should be managed as chemical waste. Do not pour down the drain. Small residues may be inactivated with 10% bleach for 30 minutes before disposal where local rules allow. Empty glass vials and cartridges: remove labels or deface them before recycling or disposal.
14Transport information
| DOT (49 CFR) / IATA / IMDG | Not regulated as a dangerous good for transport by road (DOT 49 CFR), air (IATA/ICAO) or sea (IMDG). Not a marine pollutant. Ship refrigerated or frozen as required by Section 7; the coolant (dry ice, UN 1845) is regulated when used. |
|---|---|
| UN number / proper shipping name / class / packing group | Not applicable. |
15Regulatory information
| OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) | Hazardous: Acute toxicity, oral (Category 4); Skin corrosion/irritation (Category 2); Serious eye damage/eye irritation (Category 2A); Specific target organ toxicity, single exposure (respiratory tract irritation) (Category 3). |
|---|---|
| TSCA (Toxic Substances Control Act) | 5-Amino-1MQ: not listed on the TSCA Inventory (supplied for research and development; 40 CFR 720.36). |
| SARA Title III (Sections 302, 311/312, 313), CERCLA | No ingredient is listed as an extremely hazardous substance (Section 302), a Section 313 toxic chemical or a CERCLA hazardous substance. Section 311/312 hazard categories follow the classification in Section 2. |

|---|---|
| Classification method | Substance classification adopted from the supplier safety data sheets listed below, with the PrymaLab policy adjustments stated in Section 11. Policy: Cayman Chemical is the primary reference for research peptides and novel small molecules and Sigma-Aldrich/Merck for commodity chemicals; a more conservative manufacturer or ECHA classification is adopted where internally consistent; SARMs, GLP-1 receptor agonists, GnRH analogues and gonadotropins carry reproductive-toxicity classifications by expert judgement. |
