Melanotan I Nasal Spray peptide Details
Melanotan I Nasal Spray — Research Grade | Pre-Formulated Liquid Solution
This nasal spray formulation delivers Melanotan I (MT-1, Afamelanotide) as a pre-formulated, sterile liquid solution for research use. No reconstitution is required — the product arrives ready for laboratory application via the nasal spray delivery format.
Melanotan I is a synthetic linear analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that binds to melanocortin receptors (primarily MC1R) to stimulate melanin production. Unlike Melanotan II, it is non-cyclic and has a more selective receptor binding profile. It has been studied extensively for photoprotection and pigmentation in preclinical and clinical research.
Nasal spray format note: This product is supplied as a metered-dose nasal spray bottle for research convenience. Transmucosal delivery of melanocortin receptor agonists is explored in preclinical literature. All use is strictly for laboratory and research purposes only.
⚠️ For Research Use Only — Not for human consumption. Requires 2nd Day Air or Next Day Air shipping (no ground shipping available).
Melanotan I Nasal Spray peptide Scientific Research
- Melanocortin Receptor Pharmacology
Used in in-vitro cell assays to measure receptor binding and activation across melanocortin receptor subtypes. MT1 supports receptor selectivity comparisons and is frequently paired with signaling reporters like cAMP and PKA-activated transcription factors. - Pigmentation Biology and Melanocyte Models
MT1 is ideal for studying MC1R-mediated melanin production. Research focuses on transcriptional activation of melanogenesis enzymes (e.g., tyrosinase) and analysis of melanosome formation and function in cultured melanocytes. - Neuroendocrine and Neuroimmune Signaling
Research involving CNS tissues or rodent models uses MT1 to examine neurotrophic gene expression, BDNF regulation, and receptor-linked plasticity pathways. MT1 also serves as a tool in inflammation-linked neurobiology research. - Cardiovascular and Autonomic Regulation
In preclinical cardiovascular studies, Melanotan 1 has been used to assess its impact on autonomic balance, blood pressure regulation, and endothelial function via MC receptor signaling. - Energy Metabolism and Metabolic Pathway Probing
Due to MC4R’s role in energy homeostasis, MT1 is used in animal studies to assess receptor-linked regulation of lipid metabolism, substrate oxidation, and body-weight regulation under experimental diets or stressors.

Handled correctly, stability holds
All peptides are supplied as sterile, lyophilized powder and are stable when handled correctly.
Store vials in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight.
For optimal longevity, keep lyophilized peptides refrigerated to help maintain integrity.
Use an appropriate research diluent (for example, BAC water). Store the reconstituted solution in the refrigerator and use within 20–30 days for best stability.
Minimize exposure to moisture and repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Follow your institution's safety procedures when handling research materials.
Frequently Asked Questions
PRODUCT & PURITY
This product is offered for laboratory and research use only. It is not intended for human consumption, medical use, therapeutic use, or veterinary use.
Yes, all of our products are sterile and sealed with a sterility plug and safety cap.
Our products undergo quality control internally at our lab and then 3rd party tested at Bioviridian (at their Texas facility) prior to shipment. All of our COA's are then posted on our site immediately upon receipt.
99% or higher. Period. The expected purity is listed on the individual product page or Certificate of Analysis, when available.
No. We are a manufacturing company and because these products are sold for research purposes only, we do not provide dosing, administration, or medical-use guidance.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, these products are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for therapeutic or diagnostic use.
STORAGE & STABILITY
As a lyophilized powder, peptides are stable. Delays in shipments up to 7 days will have zero to minimal impact on efficacy of peptides. Most precautionary efforts must be made to maintain temperature consistency once reconstituted.
Store the product according to the storage recommendations provided on the label or accompanying documentation in your shipment. Proper storage helps maintain product integrity during its shelf life. Most peptides have an expiration date of 2 years if kept unreconstituted (lyophilized powder).
SHIPPING
Shipping times vary based on your location and the shipping method selected at checkout. We offer shipping options between 1 and 5 days.
No.
Once your order is processed, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with tracking information.
