Melanotan-2 (MT-2) is a lab-made analogue of α-MSH, the body’s natural “melanocyte-stimulating” signal. In plain terms, it’s a peptide researchers use to explore how the melanocortin system affects pigmentation and other biological signals.
In research settings, MT-2 is studied for how it activates melanocortin receptors (including MC1R on melanocytes), which is associated with increased melanin production and darker skin tone in experimental models. It’s also used to investigate brain-level signaling linked to appetite and sexual function.
What makes our MT-2 stand out is verified purity and identity. Each batch is sequence-confirmed (e.g., mass spectrometry) and purity-checked by HPLC, with ≥99% purity (typical). You receive a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) showing the actual test results—clear proof, not guesswork.
Consistency matters for reliable work. We keep the same specification and analytical “fingerprint” from batch to batch and track every lot number, so you can reorder the profile you liked and expect the same behavior in your comparisons and follow-ups.
Choose Melanotan-2 from AI Peptides if you value clarity over hype—a well-characterized peptide with transparent documentation and high purity that lets you focus on the science.
