Questions

What is Melanotan II?
A synthetic cyclic heptapeptide, Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH2: an analogue of alpha-MSH(4-10) with norleucine at position 4, D-phenylalanine at position 7, a lactam ring and a C-terminal amide. Also written MT-II.
What does 10 mg on the Melanotan II vial mean?
The label states the total quantity in the vial: 10 mg of lyophilized powder. Solara does not publish whether that figure is the gross powder weight or the net peptide content.
What is the molecular weight of Melanotan II?
PubChem lists an average molecular weight of 1024.2 g/mol and the formula C50H69N15O9 (PubChem CID 92432). This is a computed reference value for the compound, not a measurement of a Solara lot. The label does not state the salt form; a salt has a higher formula weight than this value.
What is the CAS number of Melanotan II?
The CAS Registry Number given for Melanotan II in its PubChem record is 121062-08-6; other salt forms carry other numbers.
How should Melanotan II be stored?
Store the sealed vial at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. Let it reach room temperature before opening.
Where does Solara ship Melanotan II from?
Solara ships from Canada. Orders are dispatched within one to two business days of payment, sealed and packed to keep the powder dry and out of light. Prices are in Canadian dollars. Shipping is $15 flat per order, and free on orders over $200.
Is Solara's Melanotan II for human use?
No. The Melanotan II Solara supplies is a lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only, not for human or veterinary use. This product is not an authorized drug, carries no Drug Identification Number and is not GMP material. The Research use policy states the full condition of supply.
