Description
Our Alpha GPC is a choline compound, supplied for lab research. Each batch is checked for 99%+ purity. It’s intended for research use only.
What is Alpha GPC?
Alpha-GPC (L-alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine) is a choline source that breaks down into choline and glycerophosphate. Choline is used to make acetylcholine.
It’s sold here at 50% and 99% purity.
How it works
Alpha-GPC is broken down into choline and glycerophosphate. The choline is used to make acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine for cell membranes.
It crosses into the brain more readily than plain choline, which is why it’s a common choline source in cognition research.
What studies say about Alpha GPC
De Jesus Moreno Moreno reported in 2003 that alpha-GPC improved cognitive scores in Alzheimer’s patients in a 180-day trial.
Other studies looked at growth hormone release and exercise.
The primary literature is on PubMed. Here’s a search to start from.

How labs use it
Cognition studies often test a compound in a deficit model, for example after sleep loss, stress or a drug that impairs memory, because effects are easier to see there than in healthy animals.
Start with the smallest size to confirm solubility and handling, then scale up once the protocol is set.
Cognition studies mostly score behavior, such as maze learning or object recognition. Many also measure something in brain tissue afterwards, like BDNF or acetylcholine.

Storage and shelf life
Keep the container sealed at room temperature, away from heat, moisture and sunlight. Write the date you opened or mixed it on the label, so anyone else in the lab knows how old it is.
Working with it safely
Wear gloves and eye protection when you open or measure it, and work on a clean surface.
Label everything you prepare, keep it away from food areas, and follow your lab’s rules for disposing of sharps and chemical waste.
