About Melanotan I
Melanotan I (also known as afamelanotide) is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that has been studied in research settings. It operates by binding to melanocortin receptors, particularly the MC1R receptor found in melanocytes. When activated, these receptors trigger increased production of melanin, the body's natural pigment. Research indicates it may also have effects on appetite regulation and metabolic processes through its interaction with other melanocortin receptor subtypes. Laboratory studies have observed that it stimulates the conversion of tyrosine to eumelanin through enhanced tyrosinase activity in melanocytes.

Absolutely. Our analytical testing is conducted by Janoshik Analytical, an independent third-party laboratory to verify the identity, purity, and composition of our research products. Each CoA includes purity analysis, peptide sequence confirmation, and date of analysis.
What are typical delivery times?
What are typical delivery times?
Delivery for our free shipping option typically takes 3-5 business days. We ship from right here in the USA to all US addresses. We also provide an option for next day shipping for an extra charge. Please allow 24 hours for processing.
Every package comes with professional packaging, tracking updates via email, and does not require a signature upon delivery.
How should these compounds be stored?
How should these compounds be stored?
Our peptides are shipping in lyophilized form, which is stable at room temperature during transit. Once received, store unopened vials in a cool, dry place.
Are products stable during shipping?
Are products stable during shipping?
Our peptides are shipped in lyophilized (freeze-dried) form, which ensures stability during transit. This powder form is highly stable at room temperature and resistant to temperature fluctuations that occur during shipping.
Research has shown no significant degradation or loss of purity when lyophilized peptides are exposed to room temperature during typical shipping timeframes. Each batch is verified for purity upon production, and our stability testing confirms maintenance of product integrity during standard shipping conditions.

What is the shelf life/expiration of unopened vials?
What is the shelf life/expiration of unopened vials?
Each lot lists a best-by/expiration on the vial label and COA. As general guidance, lyophilized peptides stored as directed are typically stable 12–24 months (often longer at –20 °C). Short shipping periods at ambient temperature are normal. Actual stability depends on sequence and storage conditions.
