Melanotan II is a synthetic peptide analogue of alpha-MSH (alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone), primarily studied in animal models for its ability to stimulate melanogenesis (skin pigmentation) and for its influence on appetite regulation, energy metabolism, and sexual functions via the activation of non-selective melanocortin receptors. This certified high-purity chemical reagent (≥ 99%) is supplied by BIOTOPEP as a lyophilized powder for scientific applications and laboratory analyses. Each batch undergoes strict post-lyophilization control to ensure the reproducibility of your experiments.
Lyophilized powder: Long-term storage at -20 °C (2 years). Short-term between 2 and 8 °C (3 months).
Reconstituted solution: Store strictly between 2 and 8 °C. Due to its stable cyclic structure, the solution maintains its viability for up to 21 to 28 days after reconstitution (bacteriostatic water).
Do not freeze after reconstitution. Mix gently by slow rotation. Store away from light, UV, and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
