Thymosin Alpha-1 Half-Life Chart

Worked example
A half-life of 2 h means Thymosin Alpha-1 halves every 2 h: 50% remains at 2 h, 25% at 4 h, and the 10% mark arrives at 6.64 h. Five half-lives (10 h) leave about 3.13%.

Recorded half-life of Thymosin Alpha-1: 2 h Source Thymosin Alpha-1

How it works

Remaining % = 100 x 0.5^(t / half-life). With a half-life of 2 h, 50% remains at 2 h, 25% at 4 h and 10% at 6.64 h. The time to reach a remaining fraction is half-life x log2(100 / remaining %).

Frequently asked questions

How long until half of Thymosin Alpha-1 remains?

By definition after one half-life, which is 2 hours for the value stored on this page.

How is the 2 hour curve calculated?

First-order decay: remaining % = 100 x 0.5^(t / 2), with t in hours. At 4 h that gives 25% and at 6.64 h it gives 10%.

Where does the 2 hour half-life of Thymosin Alpha-1 come from?

It is stored on the Thymosin Alpha-1 compound record together with its source link. Enter a different half-life in the calculator to compare other published values.
