MT-2 (Melonotan 2)
Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (Ξ±-MSH). Its cyclic structure provides broader melanocortin receptor activity across MC1R through MC5R, with enhanced metabolic stability compared to endogenous Ξ±-MSH.
MT-2 stimulates melanocortin receptors in melanocytes and the hypothalamus, triggering melanogenesis (melanin production) and appetite modulation. Its resistance to enzymatic degradation provides an extended research half-life compared to linear analogues.
Add bacteriostatic water slowly along the inner vial wall. For a 10mg vial: 2mL BW yields 5mg/mL. Swirl gently β do not shake. Refrigerate after reconstitution; use within 28 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
MT-2 is a cyclic heptapeptide with broader melanocortin receptor affinity (MC1RβMC5R). MT-1 is a linear analogue with higher MC1R selectivity. MT-2 is generally considered more potent in preclinical models.
Store lyophilized at 2β8Β°C, away from direct light and moisture. Once reconstituted in bacteriostatic water, refrigerate and use within 28 days.
HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) is the gold-standard method for peptide purity verification. >99% HPLC means less than 1% impurities detected β batch-verified by an independent third-party laboratory.
