Description

Melanotan II (MT-II)

Advance pigmentation and melanocortin-axis research with Melanotan II (MT-II), a cyclic α-MSH analogue produced at ≥99% purity. MT-II is investigated as a melanocortin receptor agonist (primarily MC1R/MC4R) for studies spanning melanogenesis, UV/photobiology, energy balance, and neuroendocrine signaling. Research Use Only. Not for human consumption.

Key Features

  • ≥99% Purity (HPLC/MS Verified) — Consistent lots for reproducible results
  • Melanocortin Agonist — MC1R/MC4R engagement for pigmentation and energy signaling models
  • Photobiology Focus — Supports assays of melanocyte cAMP signaling and UV-response endpoints
  • Lyophilized Research Format — Supplied in a standardized format for controlled laboratory handling and experimental preparation
  • GMP-Compliant, USA-Made — Batch-to-batch reliability
  • COA Included — Full lot documentation

Melanotan II is a cyclic heptapeptide analogue of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that activates melanocortin receptors:

  • MC1R (Pigmentation Biology): Increases cAMP in melanocytes → interrogate pathways for melanin synthesis, melanosome transport, and DNA-damage response models.
  • MC3R/MC4R (Neuroendocrine/Metabolic): Explore energy homeostasis and signaling function in preclinical systems.
  • Immuno-Modulatory Angles: Melanocortin pathways are also studied for effects on inflammatory tone and cutaneous immune signaling.

At AminoVault, our commitment is to scientific integrity and unmatched product quality. We provide research-exclusive peptides and specialty compounds formulated with the highest-purity ingredients, sourced from GMP-certified facilities. Every batch undergoes rigorous third-party testing to ensure precision, consistency, and compliance. No exaggerated claims—just elite-grade materials trusted by researchers who demand the best.

At AminoVault, safety begins with strict adherence to quality standards. All of our compounds are produced in GMP-certified facilities and undergo comprehensive third-party testing to verify identity, purity, and consistency. While our products are not intended for human consumption, they meet the highest benchmarks for laboratory and research use. We are committed to full transparency and provide detailed documentation, including Certificates of Analysis (COAs), with every batch.

Every batch of AminoVault peptides is subject to a multi-point quality control process, including High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)Mass Spectrometry (MS) testing and more. This ensures batch-to-batch consistency, accurate amino acid sequencing, and the absence of contaminants or solvents. Results are documented in detailed COAs, available for customer review on our lab results page.

While many suppliers claim “high purity,” AminoVault proves it—with verified ≥99% purity on every peptide (unless specified), third-party certification, and direct traceability to GMP-certified manufacturing partners. We never cut corners with fillers or low-cost synthesis shortcuts. Our peptides are trusted by leading academic and biotech labs for their reliability and reproducibility.

Yes. While we refuse to compromise on quality, our streamlined supply chain and bulk manufacturing efficiencies allow us to offer exceptional pricing without sacrificing performance. Our goal is to make world-class peptides accessible for every level of researcher—from university labs to independent investigators.

Absolutely not. AminoVault peptides are lyophilized to pure powder form, free of fillers, dyes, preservatives, or binding agents. What you see is what you get: pure, unadulterated compounds designed for clean research outcomes.

At AminoVault, we prioritize fast and secure delivery. Most in-stock items are processed and shipped within 1–2 business days. All orders are carefully packaged within FedEx or USPS padded envelopes to maintain stability during transit, ensuring your peptides arrive research-ready and uncompromised.

Yes. Our scientific support team is available to assist with technical product inquiries, documentation, and ordering guidance. Whether you’re a seasoned researcher or new to peptide science, we’re here to ensure your project starts on solid ground.

Every AminoVault order includes active links to a Certificate of Analysis (COA) that provides a comprehensive breakdown of the current product’s purity level, molecular identity, and batch traceability. For the most current Certificates of Analysis (COAs), please visit our Lab Results page. This page contains the latest available third-party testing documentation for AminoVault products, including results related to purity, identity, and other applicable quality-testing measures. Customers may use the product information associated with their order to locate the corresponding available COA. Because testing documentation is updated as new inventory and testing results become available, the Lab Results page should always be used as the primary source for the latest COAs.

AminoVault isn’t just a vendor—we’re a trusted partner in scientific progress. Our peptides are backed by GMP-certified manufacturing, third-party lab testing, transparent documentation, and an unwavering commitment to purity, performance, and professionalism.
