Melanotan 2 is a synthetic analogue of α-MSH, the hormone that steers the pigment cells in your skin. Unlike the natural hormone it addresses several melanocortin receptors at once, and it is that broad reach which explains why research observes more than pigment alone. We supply it as a research-grade vial at ≥99% HPLC purity, dispatched the same working day from the Netherlands.
What melanotan 2 research turns on
Melanotan 2 is best known in research around pigment. It is thought to stimulate the melanocytes, the cells that produce pigment, through the same pathway as the natural hormone α-MSH. Research also looks at effects on appetite and libido, because the peptide acts on several melanocortin receptors.
The MSH route and the pigment cells
Melanotan 2 is a synthetic analogue of α-MSH (alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone). It acts as a non-selective agonist at the melanocortin receptors MC1, MC3, MC4 and MC5. Through MC1 it is linked to pigment formation in the skin; through MC4 to appetite and sexual function. Because it acts on several receptors at once, its effect profile is broader than that of the natural hormone. Most of the research comes from animal models and early studies.
Melanotan 1 and 2 side by side
Melanotan 1 and melanotan 2 are often confused, but they are different substances. Melanotan 1 (afamelanotide) is now an approved medicine used under medical supervision for a rare light-sensitivity condition. Melanotan 2 has never been approved for that and remains a research substance: it acts on more receptors, stays active longer and therefore has a broader effect and side-effect profile. BasePurity supplies melanotan 2 as a research peptide only; we do not carry melanotan 1.
On amounts and making it up
Melanotan 2 ships as a lyophilised vial that you mix yourself with bacteriostatic water. The literature usually works with a build-up phase at low amounts followed by a maintenance phase; the exact protocols vary by study. BasePurity gives no dosing or administration advice itself: we supply melanotan 2 as a research peptide only, and the details on this page (purity, vial size) are intended for your research documentation. After mixing, store the vial in the fridge (2–8 °C), protected from light.
What is known about tolerability?
Melanotan 2 is a research substance that has never been approved as a medicine, and its safety in humans is not established. The literature and reports mention, among other things, nausea, flushing, and the darkening of existing moles. There are concerns about a possibly increased risk of skin cancer, although this has not been confirmed in long-term studies.
What is legally allowed?
Melanotan 2 is not approved as a medicine in the Netherlands or the rest of the EU, and it may not be sold or used for human application. As a research-grade peptide, however, it may be bought and held for laboratory research; consumption or cosmetic use is explicitly outside that. BasePurity therefore supplies melanotan 2 for research only, not for human use.
What we check per batch
Every batch of melanotan 2 is checked in the lab for purity (≥99%) and identity. So you know exactly what you are holding, that is the main difference from anonymous suppliers. The exact specifications are in the table at the bottom of this page.
