View certificates of analysisThis peptide is analyzed by an accredited US third-party laboratory before it ships.
Identity and purity confirmed by MZ Biolabs (Tucson, AZ), a US DEA-licensed analytical facility, via HPLC purity analysis and mass-spectrometry identity confirmation under GLP standards.
Our third-party certificates of analysis are published on our website — no login required.
Peptides are photo- and temperature-sensitive; handle per standard laboratory practice.
Quality control across the research-peptide industry is inconsistent, and many suppliers do not publish third-party testing for their products. Independent verification of identity and purity is essential for reproducible research.
Verified by MZ Biolabs (Tucson, AZ), an accredited US laboratory, via HPLC and mass spectrometry, with batch-linked COAs.
Freeze-dried into sterile, UV-resistant glass vials and packaged in the USA.
Supports chain-of-custody, label transparency, and batch-linked traceability.

Melanotan II (MT-2) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), an endogenous melanocortin peptide. Mechanistically, it acts as a non-selective agonist of the melanocortin receptors, with reported activity at MC1R, MC3R, and MC4R.
Melanotan II is an experimental research chemical, supplied strictly for laboratory research. Sports Technology Labs makes no claims regarding its effects, and nothing in this listing should be interpreted as describing outcomes in humans or animals.
Melanotan II is an investigational research peptide. It is not approved by the FDA and is not a drug, food, dietary supplement, or cosmetic. Marketing it for human use is unlawful.
Melanocortin receptor agonists such as Melanotan II are not currently listed on the World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List.
In the United States, Melanotan II is not a controlled substance and may be legally purchased and possessed for laboratory research use. In some other countries it is restricted as an unlicensed medicine.
Sports Technology Labs are chemical suppliers, not medical providers. We do not condone or encourage consumer use of research compounds.
