Melanotan II (MT-2) — Analytical Reagent

Product Description: Melanotan II (MT-2) is a highly potent, cyclic heptapeptide analog of the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). Engineered for enhanced chemical stability and a significantly longer half-life than its natural counterpart, MT-2 is a non-selective agonist of the melanocortin receptors (MC1, MC3, MC4, and MC5). In laboratory settings, this reagent is utilized to study systemic biological signaling and receptor binding affinity.

Analytical Specifications & Laboratory Safety:

• Verification: Each batch undergoes rigorous HPLC and Mass Spectrometry (MS) analysis to ensure a purity threshold of 99 percent or higher.

• Integrity: Synthesized to be free of residual solvents and heavy metal contaminants to ensure reproducible experimental data and a reliable research profile.

• Batch-Specific Documentation: Comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are available for every lot to verify the structural integrity of the research material.

Primary Areas of In-Vitro Investigation:

• Melanogenesis Induction: Investigating the activation of the MC1 receptor to stimulate eumelanin production for photoprotection and pigment signaling research.

• Metabolic & Appetite Signaling: Studying the effects of MC4 receptor activation on satiety pathways, energy balance, and insulin sensitivity in cellular models.

• Neurological Signaling: Exploring the central nervous system pathways and melanocortin receptor interactions involved in neuroprotection research.

Notice: This product is a synthetic peptide intended for in vitro laboratory experimentation. It is not for human consumption. While extensively documented for its high safety profile in clinical literature, it remains in the "research only" category for legal compliance.
