Melanotan II is a synthetic analog of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. Research has studied its role in melanogenesis, appetite regulation, and energy homeostasis through activation of melanocortin receptors. It has been investigated in preclinical models for its effects on skin pigmentation and metabolic signaling pathways.
Melanotan IIis provided as a lyophilized powder for reconstitution with bacteriostatic water prior to use in laboratory assays. Store lyophilized product at -20°C for long-term storage. Reconstituted solutions should be stored at 2-8°C and used within 30 days.
