So you're looking into melatonin for sleep or anti-aging work, and the big challenge is always getting a consistent baseline—most research-grade stuff varies batch to batch, which can mess with your results pretty badly if you're not careful.
What we've got here handles that by running at >99% purity, which is better than reagent grade for this kind of work, and we test every batch with HPLC so you're not guessing on the numbers.
It's a white to off-white powder that melts around 116.5-118°C, and it's soluble in ethanol at 50mg/ml or so—we usually have stock of teh 1g and 5g sizes, but the 10g takes about 20 days or so depending on demand.
One thing that catches people off guard is the storage: you absolutely need to keep it at -20°C, otherwise it degrades faster than you'd expect, and it's not great for oral dosing studies (it's strictly for lab research, not that kind of appliction).
CAS is 73-31-4, molecular weight is 232.28 g/mol, and basically the 10mg or 50mg vials are what most buyers go with for sleep studies—just confirm your MOQ with us before ordering.
We don't have a set MOQ — you can order as little as 1 gram for lab trials, though larger quantities get better per-unit pricing.
If in stock, orders ship within 2-3 business days. For custom batches or bulk orders, expect 7-10 business days depending on volume.
Yes, every batch comes with a COA showing the >99% purity and confirming the melting point range of 116.5-118°C.
Keep it sealed and stored at -20°C in a freezer. It's soluble in ethanol at ≥50 mg/ml, so avoid moisture and light exposure.
No — this is strictly for lab research like sleep studies or anti-aging investigations. It's not for human or veterinary use, and we require a signed research use agreement.
