Why buy Melanotan 2 (MT2) from TrueBond Labs
Where the MT2 certificate stands
Every MT2 vial has a printed lot code, and certificates are filed under those codes on our lab reports page as the independent lab releases them. The MT2 certificate isn't posted yet, so we don't quote a purity figure for it.
Seven residues, cyclic, 10mg
Melanotan 2 is a cyclic peptide of seven amino acids. We supply it as 10mg of lyophilized powder in a sealed 3 mL vial. It's the only size we stock, and each vial's label carries its lot code.
MT2 or PT-141
MT2 shares its ring with PT-141, which already has a published certificate. They're often compared, so we carry both, each as its own product. Browse the rest of the catalog by research area on our research peptides page.
What is Melanotan 2?
Melanotan 2, usually shortened to MT2 or MT-II, is a synthetic analogue of alpha-MSH. Alpha-MSH is a linear chain of 13 amino acids. MT2 is much shorter: a cyclic peptide of seven amino acids. It appears in published laboratory research on melanocortin receptor biology. Its sequence is written Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH2, with a lactam bridge closing the ring.
The structural difference between MT2 and PT-141 is at the C-terminus: MT2 ends in an amide, and PT-141 ends in a free acid. They share the same ring, which is why the two are so often listed side by side.

Melanotan 2 (MT2): frequently asked questions
What is the MT2 peptide?
MT2 is short for Melanotan 2, a synthetic cyclic peptide of seven amino acids modeled on alpha-MSH. You'll also see it written as MT-II or Melanotan II. We sell it as a 10mg vial for laboratory research use only, not for human or animal use.
PT-141 vs Melanotan 2: what is the difference?
PT-141 is built on the same six-residue ring as Melanotan 2. The difference is the last group on the chain: MT2 has a C-terminal amide and PT-141 has a free carboxylic acid. We sell each one as its own product with its own lot code.
Is Melanotan 2 the same as Melanotan 1?
No. Melanotan 1 is a separate compound. Melanotan 2 is a cyclic peptide of seven residues, and it's the only one of the two we carry.
Does your Melanotan 2 come with a certificate of analysis?
Certificates are published on our lab reports page by lot code as the independent lab releases them. Your vial carries a printed lot code, so you can match it to its certificate once it's posted. For an update on your lot, email support@
