Description
Melanotan I (afamelanotide) is a synthetic linear analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It acts as a full agonist at melanocortin receptors, most notably MC1R, the primary receptor governing melanogenesis in melanocytes. Supplied at 99.2% HPLC purity with full COA.
Research has investigated afamelanotide extensively for its role in stimulating eumelanin production, UV photoprotection mechanisms, and potential applications in pigmentation disorders. Unlike Melanotan II (a cyclic analogue), Melanotan I is linear in structure and demonstrates greater MC1R selectivity.
It is the active ingredient in Scenesse (afamelanotide), the only approved melanocortin drug as of the knowledge cutoff, used clinically in erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP). Research supply is entirely separate from therapeutic-grade product.
Research & Guides
Frequently Asked Questions: Melanotan I
Melanotan I (afamelanotide) is a linear α-MSH analogue studied in preclinical research for melanogenesis, UV photoprotection, and skin pigmentation pathways. For in-vitro laboratory research use only.
Melanotan I is a linear α-MSH analogue with greater MC1R selectivity, while Melanotan II is a cyclic analogue with a broader melanocortin receptor binding profile. They have different molecular structures, receptor selectivity profiles, and distinct research applications.
Our Melanotan I 10mg is independently verified at 99.2% HPLC purity with full COA.
Melanotan I is legal to purchase in Australia for legitimate in-vitro research purposes. Not for human consumption or therapeutic use.
Store lyophilised at −20°C. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C protected from light and use within 4 weeks.
