Description
Peptides will arrive in a lyophilized (powder) form for maximum stability.
Melanotan I (afamelanotide) is a synthetic linear analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). Sequence: Ac-Ser-Tyr-Ser-Nle-Glu-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Gly-Lys-Pro-Val-NH2. Molecular formula: C78H111N21O19; molecular weight: 1646.85 g/mol; CAS 75921-69-6.
Research on Melanotan I has examined its high-affinity agonism at the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) and downstream activation of the cAMP/tyrosinase pathway governing eumelanin synthesis in melanocyte cell culture and animal models.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder for reconstitution, each batch is analyzed by HPLC to confirm purity and identity.
For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use, and not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic application.
