Melanotan I (afamelanotide) is a synthetic 13-amino-acid linear analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). PubChem lists its molecular formula as C78H111N21O19, with a molecular weight of about 1646.8 g/mol. It is a well-characterised melanocortin-receptor research peptide in laboratory literature.

KYVEC supplies Melanotan I as a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed, labelled vial, packed in our signature KYVEC black box. Each label shows the product name and quantity, so stock can be logged and tracked in your lab inventory as soon as it arrives.
