MT-1 Melanotan I 10mg

MT-1, also known as Melanotan I, is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte–stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is studied for its role in melanocortin receptor activation, particularly MC1R, which is associated with pigmentation pathways and photoprotective responses in controlled research models.

Product Specifications:

• Type: Melanocortin receptor agonist (α-MSH analog)
• Purity: ≥ 98% (HPLC-tested)
• Form: Lyophilized peptide
• Solvent Compatibility: Bacteriostatic water
• Storage: Refrigerate after reconstitution

Key Research Characteristics:

• Activates melanocortin receptors involved in pigmentation signaling
• Studied for effects on melanin production and skin response to UV exposure
• Supports research in photoprotection and oxidative stress response
• Demonstrates stable receptor binding in controlled laboratory environments
• Investigated in models related to skin physiology and pigment regulation

Scientific Background:
MT-1 mimics the activity of endogenous α-MSH, binding primarily to melanocortin receptors to stimulate melanogenesis. This process increases melanin production, which plays a key role in pigmentation and protection against ultraviolet radiation in research settings.

Handling and Reconstitution:

• Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water
• Gently swirl until fully dissolved
• Do not shake vigorously
• Store refrigerated after mixing

Storage:

• Lyophilized: store in a cool, dry place
• Reconstituted: store refrigerated and use within recommended stability window
