Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Melanotan-II in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | ||
Stability | Lyophilized Melanotan-II although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C . Upon reconstitution MT-II should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C .For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
Formulation | The protein (1mg/ml) was lyophilized with no additives. |
Melanotan and Melanotan-II are both analogs of the peptide hormone alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone (a-MSH) that tend to induce skin tanning. Unlike Melanotan, Melanotan-II has the additional effect of increasing libido. Melanotan II has aphrodisiac properties.
