Secure Institutional Grade PT-141 (Bremelanotide) for Your Research
Intended for laboratory research use only. Not for human consumption.
Research Findings
Archive Ref. PT-141-RFMelanocortin Receptor Activation
Selective MC3R/MC4R agonist studied for its role in central nervous system-mediated physiological responses. Documented dose-dependent activity in preclinical and clinical trials.
Central Mechanism of Action
Unlike peripheral vasodilators, acts through hypothalamic melanocortin pathways, representing a novel pharmacological approach.
Clinical Development
Advanced through multiple clinical trial phases. FDA-approved derivative (bremelanotide) validates the melanocortin mechanism.
Cyclic Heptapeptide
Synthetic cyclic lactam analog of α-MSH. Derived from Melanotan II with enhanced receptor selectivity profile.
Laboratory Verification
High-performance liquid chromatography confirms single-peak purity of 99.65% with no detectable degradation products or synthesis byproducts.
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry confirms molecular identity at 1025.2 g/mol with isotope distribution matching theoretical predictions.

Store at -20°C for long-term preservation (up to 24 months). Short-term storage at 2–8°C acceptable for up to 3 months. Protect from moisture.
Reconstituted State
After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, store at 2–8°C. Use within 28 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Photostability
Light-sensitive compound. Store in amber vials or protect from direct UV exposure. Maintain in original packaging until use.
Physical Agitation
Avoid vigorous shaking after reconstitution. Gently swirl to dissolve. Excessive agitation may cause peptide aggregation or denaturation.
