About This Material

Melanotan 2

Laboratory research material

Melanotan II is a synthetic, non-selective α-MSH analogue that engages a broad melanocortin receptor profile — MC1R, MC3R, MC4R and MC5R. That wider reach makes it one of the more versatile melanocortin tool compounds for pigmentation, appetite and energy-balance signalling research.

Lyophilised powder, 10mg vial, ≥99% purity by HPLC, Certificate of Analysis on request. UK-based dispatch for preclinical research only.

Research applications

  • Multi-receptor melanocortin agonism studies (MC1R/MC3R/MC4R/MC5R)
  • Melanogenesis and eumelanin synthesis pathway modelling
  • MC4R-mediated appetite and energy-homeostasis research
  • Comparative receptor engagement against Melanotan I

Specifications

  • Form: Lyophilised powder
  • Purity: ≥99% (HPLC verified)
  • Storage: −20°C, protected from light and moisture
  • Available sizes: 10mg
  • Certificate of Analysis: available on request
