Premier Compound for Melanogenesis & Receptor Signaling Research

Concentration: 10mg Purity: ≥99% (HPLC Certified) Testing: Verified by HPLC-UV-MS in the USA 🇺🇸


Product Overview

Melanotan-2 (MT-2) is a high-purity synthetic peptide analogue of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (-MSH). Engineered for enhanced stability and potency, this compound is a critical tool for investigating the melanocortin signaling pathways.

Supplied in a stable lyophilized form, our Melanotan-2 is designed exclusively for in vitro laboratory research to study cellular pathways, receptor binding affinities, and metabolic interactions under controlled experimental conditions.


Research Applications

Melanotan-2 is extensively utilized in laboratory settings to investigate:

  • Melanogenesis Pathways: Studying the molecular mechanisms of melanin synthesis and cellular signaling.

  • Receptor Activation: Investigating the effects on physiological functions through melanocortin receptor activation (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, MC5R).

  • Metabolic Regulation: Exploring potential roles in appetite regulation and energy balance mechanisms.

  • Photoprotection Models: Researching protective effects against UV-induced cellular damage.


Product Specifications

  • Active Content: 10mg per vial

  • Molecular formula (as labeled): C₅₀H₆₉N₁₅O₉

     

     

  • Format: Lyophilized White Powder

  • Solubility: Soluble in Bacteriostatic Water

  • Appearance (Mixed): Typically forms a clear to slightly hazy solution


Handling & Storage

  • Reconstitution: Protocol suggests a ratio of 0.75–1.25 mL of Bacteriostatic Water per 5mg (Adjust volume accordingly for this 10mg vial).

  • Mixing: Add water slowly along the inner vial wall. Do not shake. Swirl or roll gently to dissolve to avoid shearing the peptide.

  • Storage (Powder): Store at -20°C prior to reconstitution.

  • Storage (Liquid): Once mixed, store at 2-8°C (refrigerated). Protect from light and air. Use within 10–21 days for optimal stability.
