This page compares what is documented about CJC-1295 (no DAC) and GHRP-6, rather than ranking them by effect. What each molecule is, the sizes and prices actually carried, what the certificate covers, and how the two differ on the bench. Everything here is research-use-only material and we do not publish outcome, dosing or administration content for any compound in the catalogue.
What is CJC-1295 (no DAC) and what is GHRP-6?
CJC-1295 (no DAC). CJC-1295 without DAC (mod GRF 1-29) carries four substitutions that resist enzymatic cleavage — the minimal stable GHRH fragment the literature keeps returning to.
GHRP-6. GHRP-6 is a hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue and one of the earliest members of that family to be characterised.

At their best sizes CJC-1295 (no DAC) works out at $6.80 per mg against $7.50 for GHRP-6 — 10% more for the mg. Vial prices start at $34.00 and $45.00 respectively, which is the number most people compare and the one that says least, because the two are not sold in the same sizes. Full sizes, tier pricing and the lot certificate sit on the CJC-1295 (no DAC) page and the GHRP-6 page.
What is each one studied for?
What the published literature investigates, which is a different question from what either will do, and the only one of the two a supplier can answer.
CJC-1295 (no DAC) is studied in ghrh analogue research. GHRH analogue research continues steadily, with the modified GRF(1-29) backbone the field's common denominator.
GHRP-6 is studied in secretagogue pharmacology research. Early secretagogue peptides remain in steady use as comparators, so their analytical literature is unusually mature.
Studied in the same area does not make two compounds interchangeable, and the research library holds the per-compound documentation.
GHRP-6 vs CJC-1295 (no DAC): how they differ on the bench
GHRP-6. GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 differ by a small number of residues and are frequently stocked side by side, which is precisely the pairing where a mislabelled vial goes unnoticed without a certificate.
CJC-1295 (no DAC). The no-DAC and with-DAC forms are different molecules with different masses — the exact thing a proper LC-MS identity check settles on arrival.
What actually differs between GHRP-6 and CJC-1295 (no DAC)
Worth doing the arithmetic before comparing sizes: CJC-1295 (no DAC) is 3,367.9 g/mol and GHRP-6 is 873 g/mol, a factor of 3.9. A milligram of GHRP-6 therefore contains roughly 3.9 times as many molecules as a milligram of CJC-1295 (no DAC), so two vials of the same labelled mass hold quite different amounts of substance. Equal milligrams are not equal moles, which is what the molarity calculator exists to convert, and it is the reason a price-per-milligram comparison and a price-per-mole comparison can point at different vials.
Both are released against a certificate reporting identity, purity by the stated method and net peptide content, readable before anything is bought.
Which is better, GHRP-6 or CJC-1295 (no DAC)?
Neither GHRP-6 nor CJC-1295 (no DAC) is ranked against the other here, and the refusal is deliberate. Better, safer and stronger are questions about effects in a living system, and we sell neither compound for use in one — why none of these pages ranks two compounds sets out the reasoning in full.
What it does instead, for these two:
- CJC-1295 (no DAC) is the cheaper of the two per mg, at $6.80 against $7.50.
- CJC-1295 (no DAC) is the heavier molecule by a factor of 3.9, so equal milligrams are not equal moles.
- Both are carried in 2 sizes, and each lot carries its own certificate.
Every one of those is checkable before you buy.
Common questions
What is the difference between GHRP-6 and CJC-1295 (no DAC)?
Different molecules before anything else: GHRP-6 is C46H56N12O6 and CJC-1295 (no DAC) is C152H252N44O42. GHRP-6 is a hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue and one of the earliest members of that family to be characterised. CJC-1295 without DAC (mod GRF 1-29) carries four substitutions that resist enzymatic cleavage — the minimal stable GHRH fragment the literature keeps returning to.
Which one should I choose?
CJC-1295 (no DAC) is carried in 5 mg, 10 mg and GHRP-6 in 5 mg, 10 mg, each lot with its own certificate. Which of those suits the work is yours to decide; everything here is research-use-only rather than guidance for use in a human or an animal.
Do both CJC-1295 (no DAC) and GHRP-6 come with a certificate of analysis?
Neither is in stock at the moment, so in each case the certificate is the one attached to the lot that arrives. A certificate belongs to a lot, not to a product. It is linked from the product page, and reports identity, purity by the stated method, and net peptide content for the material actually in that lot.
Which is cheaper, GHRP-6 or CJC-1295 (no DAC)?
Per mg, CJC-1295 (no DAC) at $6.80 against $7.50, taking each one's best size. By vial they start at $34.00 for CJC-1295 (no DAC) and $45.00 for GHRP-6, which is the comparison most people make and the one that says least, because the two are not sold in the same sizes.
Is a milligram of CJC-1295 (no DAC) the same as a milligram of GHRP-6?
By mass yes, by amount of substance no. CJC-1295 (no DAC) is 3,367.9 g/mol and GHRP-6 is 873 g/mol, a factor of 3.9, so a milligram of GHRP-6 holds roughly 3.9 times as many molecules. Two vials with the same number on the label are not the same amount of substance, which is what the molarity calculator converts.
