What is CJC-1295 (no DAC), and what is it used for?
CJC-1295 (no DAC) is also listed and searched as CJC-1295 peptide, CJC-1295 without DAC, Mod GRF 1-29. They all mean the same compound. Supplier lists write it as CJC-1295 (no DAC) peptides or peptide CJC-1295 (no DAC) as well; every one of those is this record. A name is not a test, which is why the lot record further down counts for more than the wording on a label.
Chemically: molecular formula C152H252N44O42, average mass 3367.9 g/mol (Modified GRF(1-29) as described by Jette et al. 2005 (tetrasubstituted hGRF 1-29 amide, without the maleimidoproprionic acid linker); not found in PubChem by name on 2026-09-05). Those figures are what the identity test on a certificate is read against.
A man-made 29-building-block copy of GHRH, also sold under the name Mod GRF(1-29).
It works on the GHRH receptor. Four building blocks are swapped out at positions 2, 8, 15 and 27. Two of those swaps are repairs: one replaces a building block that tends to break down, the other replaces one that tends to react with oxygen.
It appears in research on the GHRH receptor. The history of those four swaps is well documented and reads as an honest list of the ways the original sequence falls apart.
No approved product. The with-DAC and no-DAC versions are chemically different molecules with different handling needs and must not be treated as the same thing. This record is about the no-DAC form.

The CJC-1295 (no DAC) certificate: lot, purity, identity, and how to verify it
A certificate answers identity, purity and net content as three separate questions, each with the method that produced it and the date it was run, how to read one covers what each field does and does not cover. For CJC-1295 (no DAC) that means a mass spectrum landing on 3,367.9 g/mol for C152H252N44O42, the figure published against its published record.

Testing by Kovera Labs. Every batch tested on or after October 1, 2026 includes endotoxin, sterility and fentanyl screening, in addition to identity, purity and net content. Open the report, then confirm it on the issuing laboratory's own site. If the identifier does not resolve there, or resolves to a different lot than the one printed on your vial, the document is worthless however convincing it looks.

The lot number on the certificate must match the lot printed on the vial you received. That match is the only thing tying the document to your material. Net content is reported separately from purity, because a vial can be highly pure and still hold less material than its label states.

CJC-1295 (no DAC) research: what the published studies examine
Status: No FDA-approved application. This compound is sold as laboratory material. Where research on it has been published, it sits at the animal, cell or early-human stage, and this record does not summarize what it found. A supplier is not a neutral judge of evidence about its own catalog.
This is the compound in the catalog where the name and the research come apart, so it is worth being exact. CJC-1295 as published is the 29-building-block GHRH copy with four swaps and one extra part bolted on the end: a group called the Drug Affinity Complex, or DAC. That group is the entire point of the molecule. It latches permanently onto albumin in the blood, and that is what stretches its life from minutes to days.
Take the DAC off and what is left is the four-swap backbone, usually sold as modified GRF(1-29). The four swaps still make it harder for the DPP-4 enzyme to cut, so it is sturdier than plain sermorelin, but with nothing gripping albumin it does not last long. It works on the same GHRH receptor on the pituitary as the rest of this class.
| Reported observation | Model | Source |
|---|---|---|
| CJC-1295 was picked as the best of three modified versions of the 29-building-block peptide, and described as the four-swap version with the extra albumin-gripping group on the end. Blood taken from injected rats showed the compound sitting on the albumin band from 15 minutes onward and still circulating past 24 hours, with traces beyond 72 hours. This is the paper that defines what the name means. | in vitro DPP-IV stability, cultured rat anterior pituitary cells, and rat pharmacokinetics | Jette and colleagues, Human growth hormone-releasing factor (hGRF)1-29-albumin bioconjugates activate the GRF receptor on the anterior pituitary in rats: identification of CJC-1295 as a long-lasting GRF analog, Endocrinology (2005)The albumin conjugation described here is the DAC. It is the property this product does not have. |
| In healthy adults, a single injection under the skin raised average growth hormone by two to ten times for six days or more, and IGF-1 by one and a half to three times for nine to eleven days, with half the compound estimated to clear in 5.8 to 8.1 days. With repeat injections, IGF-1 stayed above where it started for up to 28 days. | two randomised placebo-controlled ascending-dose trials in healthy adults aged 21 to 61 | Teichman and colleagues, Prolonged stimulation of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor I secretion by CJC-1295, a long-acting analog of GH-releasing hormone, Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (2005)These figures describe CJC-1295 WITH DAC. They do not describe this product, and a multi-day half-life is the specific thing the DAC provides. |
| In mice bred without GHRH, a dose once a day kept body weight and length normal, while dosing every 48 or 72 hours only got part of the way there. Total pituitary RNA and growth hormone RNA both rose, and tissue staining suggested the gland was growing more hormone-producing cells rather than simply emptying its stores. | GHRH knockout mice, five weeks of treatment from one week of age | Alba and colleagues, Once-daily administration of CJC-1295, a long-acting growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog, normalizes growth in the GHRH knockout mouse, American Journal of Physiology: Endocrinology and Metabolism (2006)Johns Hopkins, independent of the originating company. Also the DAC form. |
Open questions. The most important thing on this page is a naming problem, not a science problem. Practically the whole published CJC-1295 record, the multi-day half-life, the long IGF-1 rise, the knockout-mouse results, was produced with the DAC version, and this product is the one without it. Anyone who searches the name and finds a 5.8 to 8.1 day half-life is reading about a different molecule.
The honest position is that the no-DAC form has a much thinner record of its own, that it lasts a short time rather than days, and that most of what is written about it online is guessed from the DAC studies rather than measured. Two more points. Where the DAC form was studied, growth hormone and IGF-1 stayed up steadily instead of coming in pulses, which is a real departure from how the body normally does it and not obviously a good thing.
And no version of this compound ever finished development into an approved product, so there is no reference standard behind the name and no modern safety record.
Each row above describes an observation in the stated model. None of it describes what CJC-1295 (no DAC) would do in a person or an animal outside that model, and none of it is a recommendation to use it for anything.
How to store CJC-1295 (no DAC): refrigeration and shelf life
Keep the sealed vial cold and out of the light and it stays as it left the lab. Once it is mixed into a solution, how long it holds up depends on the compound, what it was mixed with, how strong the solution is and how cold it is kept — too many variables for anyone to print one shelf life on a label. So laboratories write the date on whatever they prepare and keep their own record of it.
For solution preparation arithmetic on the bench, concentration, per-graduation values and molarity, use the vial concentration calculator, which opens with the CJC-1295 (no DAC) sizes stocked here already loaded. It covers laboratory measurement only and contains no administration guidance.
