MT2 10mg

MT2 10 mg

Melanotan II (MT2) is a synthetic cyclic peptide analog of α-MSH that binds melanocortin receptors MC1R–MC5R for pigmentation, photoprotection, and receptor pharmacology research. It is supplied as lyophilized powder in 10 mg vials and should be protected from light during laboratory handling.

Research Applications

• MC1R–MC5R receptor-binding and selectivity studies
• Pigmentation and melanogenesis model systems
• Photoprotection and UV-response research
• Melanocortin signalling and receptor pharmacology assays
• Photosensitive peptide stability evaluations

Handling & Storage

• Supplied as lyophilized powder
• Reconstitution — reconstitute with bacteriostatic water; avoid unnecessary light exposure
• Reconstituted solution — store at 2–8 °C (36–46 °F) and use within 30 days
• Handling — keep the vial in its carton or amber secondary packaging when not in active use
