Melanotan I overview
Melanotan I (afamelanotide-related sequence class) is used to investigate MC1R and related melanocortin pathways, melanocortin receptor pharmacology and photobiology models. Strictly for laboratory research.
Background
Developed from α-MSH structure–activity work aiming for improved receptor potency and stability.
Research focus areas
Investigators commonly examine Melanotan I across the following experimental themes:
Storage (laboratory handling)
Store lyophilized research material frozen, dry, and protected from light unless the lot COA specifies otherwise. Any reconstitution or experimental protocol must follow your institution’s laboratory SOPs for research chemicals. AminosPure does not provide instructions for human or animal administration and does not sell products for those uses.
