What Is Melanotan II?
Melanotan II is a cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-MSH studied as a non-selective melanocortin receptor (MC1R/MC3R/MC4R) agonist in receptor-pharmacology research.
Research Background
Because Melanotan II activates multiple melanocortin receptor subtypes, it is used in comparative GPCR pharmacology research to characterize receptor-subtype-specific signaling relative to more selective analogs such as PT-141 (bremelanotide).
How Melanotan II Compares to Related Research Compounds
- PT-141 10mg — a related compound frequently studied alongside Melanotan II in comparative research designs.
Specifications
Preparing a Laboratory Stock Solution
For in-vitro assay preparation, researchers calculate a target concentration (mg/mL) from the vial's labeled mass and the volume of sterile diluent added, then aliquot and store per standard laboratory cold-chain practice. This is a laboratory dilution calculation only, performed strictly for analytical or in-vitro research purposes. Not for use in humans or animals.
Storage & Handling
Lyophilized powder should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability, or refrigerated (2-8°C) for short-term use, protected from light and moisture. Once reconstituted for laboratory use, follow standard cold-chain handling and use within the timeframe indicated by your institution's protocols.
Third-Party Verification
Melanotan II ships with a QR-linked, batch-specific certificate of analysis (COA) confirming identity and purity via HPLC. Researchers should always confirm the lot number on their vial matches the COA on file before beginning any assay.
Sourcing & Quality
This reference material is manufactured and quality-tested to support reproducible research outcomes. Every batch is independently verified before it ships, and COAs remain accessible for future reference.
