When a researcher is setting up a melanogenesis assay to quantify eumelanin production in B16-F10 melanoma cells, they’ll reconstitute this with bacteriostatic water to a working concentration, and we’ve seen consistent results down to 0.1 µM in those models.
It’s a synthetic cyclic analog of α-MSH with the sequence Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH2, and the cyclization gives it better metabolic stability than teh linear version — that matters for long incubation studies.
We’re running HPLC, and purity comes in above 99%, usually between 99.2 and 99.5%, so you’re not dealing with truncated sequences that could mess up your.
Each vial holds 10mg of the white freeze-dried powder, and it’s sterile filtered before lyophilization, but we don’t test for endotoxins because of that it’s for research use only (not in vivo work without your own validation).
MOQ is 10 vials, and we usually have stock, but confirm lead time if you need more than 50 units or so — the 5L drum is easier to handle for bulk reconstitution, anyway.
It’s not ideal for long-term room tempearture storage; you’ll want to keep it at -20°C protected form light, and we’ve seen potency drop about 5% after 30 days if left on the bench.
It's over 99% purity, verified by HPLC analysis. That's a very high standard for research peptides, so you can trust the consistency batch to batch.
You need to store it at -20°C, protected from light. The freeze-dried form is stable that way, and reconstituted solutions should be used quickly.
Yes, we include a Certificate of Analysis with each batch. It shows the HPLC purity results and confirms the peptide content and sterility.
There's no strict MOQ—you can order as few as one vial. We keep stock ready, so single units are fine for small-scale research.
It comes in a sealed glass vial with a rubber stopper, under sterile conditions. For long-term storage, keep it at -20°C and away from light.
