Description
Description
PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a synthetically manufactured, highly purified peptide agonist that selectively targets central melanocortin receptors. Derived as a structurally modified cyclic heptapeptide analog of Melanotan II (specifically a metabolite with a free C-terminal carboxylic acid), this specialized compound bypasses peripheral melanocortin pathways to act primarily as a central nervous system signaling molecule. It binds with high affinity to MC3 and MC4 receptors, making it a foundational tool for evaluating neurochemical signaling, behavioral responses, and metabolic regulation networks in in vitro and in vivo research models.
Our PT-141 reagent is synthesized utilizing advanced solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) methodologies and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purification protocols. This process yields a pristine, highly stable lyophilized white crystalline powder cake optimized for chemical consistency, structural longevity, and reproducible results across high-throughput analytical screening.

Reconstitution & Laboratory Storage
-
- Lyophilized Storage: To maintain optimal structural integrity and prevent natural peptide degradation, store the dry powder cake continuously frozen at or below -20°C prior to evaluation. Stable under properly desiccated conditions for up to 24 months from the manufacturing date.
- Reconstitution Guidelines: Allow the glass vial to naturally acclimatize to room temperature before introducing an appropriate laboratory solvent, such as sterile Bacteriostatic Water (0.9% Benzyl Alcohol). Gently swirl the container until the white powder dissolves completely. Do not shake or agitate aggressively, as high kinetic force can destabilize and fracture delicate peptide bonds.
- Post-Reconstitution Storage: Once liquid solution has been introduced, store continuously refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C (36°F to 46°F). Protect entirely from prolonged exposure to direct light or ambient UV radiation. Utilize within 30 days of fluid integration.
