99% Pure | USA Made | Multi Dose Melanotan-2 is your go-to research peptide for dialing in melanin production and UV-response in melanocyte cultures or animal models. In just one vial, you get a stable, ready-to-use peptide that reliably sparks dose-dependent pigmentation pathways—no extra hormones, no guesswork. Each 10 mg ampoule is USA-made, HPLC-verified at ≥ 99% purity, and endotoxin-screened (< 0.1 EU/mg), so you can run crisp, repeatable assays every time.
Peptides are not ready to use. Must purchase BAC water for reconstitution.
Quickly triggers melanin synthesis in cultured skin cells, making your pigmentation data fast and reliable.
Enhances melanin’s protective effect under UV stress, perfect for photoprotection screening.
Binds MC1R with high specificity—no off-target hormone spikes to muddy your results.
Clear, linear increase in pigmentation markers across a range of concentrations.
See measurable changes in melanin-related genes within hours of dosing.
Reconstitute in sterile or bacteriostatic water; store lyophilized at – 20 °C and solution at 2–8 °C for up to 7 days.
Melanotan-2 is a synthetic analog of the natural melanocortin hormone α-MSH. Labs use it to precisely turn on melanin production by activating MC1R receptors in skin cells or animal models. It’s the easiest way to study pigmentation pathways and UV-response mechanisms without additional hormonal noise.
Choose Melanotan-2 when you need a reliable, single-reagent solution for pigmentation research. Its high MC1R affinity delivers consistent melanin induction, so you can compare treatments, screen UV-protective compounds, or map melanogenesis kinetics—all from one 10 mg vial.
Unlike unmodified α-MSH fragments, Melanotan-2 is engineered for enhanced stability and MC1R selectivity. That means longer shelf life, stronger receptor binding, and no unintended hormone effects—giving you clean, reproducible data for every assay.
To study melanin production, UV-protection assays, and melanocortin–MC1R signaling in vitro and in vivo.
Pigmentation markers appear within 4–8 hours in melanocyte cultures.
Researchers often use 100 nM–1 µM, adjusted per cell line and endpoint.
Yes—treated melanocytes show reduced UV-induced DNA damage and oxidative stress.
Dissolve in Sterile Water for Injection (SWFI) or Bacteriostatic Water (BAC), then mix gently until clear.
Store lyophilized vials at – 20 °C; use reconstituted solution within 7 days at 2–8 °C.
No—engineered for MC1R specificity, avoiding cortisol or ACTH elevation.
Yes—commonly co-studied with antioxidants or UV-filter compounds in skin-research.
No—strictly for research use only, not for therapeutic or cosmetic application.
Real Peptides offers ISO-certified, USA-manufactured Melanotan-2 (10 mg), ≥ 99% purity, and low endotoxin—available for research use only.
