Every vial in the range is lyophilised, labelled and lot-numbered the same way, with the certificate for its lot linked from its own product page. Pictured: BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu, Glow and Retatrutide.
Browse the rangeMelanotan 2 (Melanotan II, MT-2, also written MT-2 Peptide) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analogue of the endogenous α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), studied as a non-selective melanocortin receptor agonist in melanogenesis, pigmentation, MC1R/MC4R signalling and appetite-pathway research. UK Peptides supplies MT-2 10mg lyophilised powder at ≥98% HPLC-UV verified purity with a third-party Certificate of Analysis on every batch.
The 10mg vial holds enough material for multi-week experiments at standard reconstitution concentrations. Published research covers:
Store the lyophilised vial at -20°C, sealed and protected from light. Refrigerate the reconstituted solution at 2–8°C and use within 28 days. Do not refreeze.
Every MT-2 10mg vial is independently tested by an accredited independent laboratory to ≥98% HPLC-UV purity with mass-spectrometry identity confirmation against the published molecular weight of 1,024.18 Da. The signed PDF CoA is supplied with every order and matches the vial lot number.
Melanotan II is one of the longest-established research peptides on the grey market, which means counterfeit and under-dosed product is unusually widespread. UK Peptides counters this with mandatory third-party HPLC verification on every batch, UK-stocked inventory, same-day Manchester dispatch and full lot traceability — visible directly on this product page.
Melanotan II (MT-II) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analogue of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), first synthesised at the University of Arizona by Hruby and colleagues in the 1980s. It acts as a non-selective agonist at melanocortin receptors MC1R, MC3R, MC4R and MC5R. The UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has repeatedly warned that unlicensed melanotan products are not authorised for human use.
