Research Supply & Ordering — FAQ
Research peptides are short chains of amino acids supplied as analytical reference standards for in-vitro laboratory study. Researchers in the United States use compounds like BPC-157, TB-500, GLP-1 analogs, and GHK-Cu to investigate cellular signaling, tissue-repair pathways, metabolic regulation, and receptor pharmacology. All compounds sold by Eon Research are for laboratory research use only — they are not drugs, supplements, foods, or cosmetics, and are not for human or veterinary use.
Compounds are supplied lyophilized (freeze-dried) in sealed glass vials for maximum stability in transit and storage. Kits are available in 1, 2, 3, and 10-vial formats so laboratories can scale assays and replicates without re-ordering — with per-vial pricing that drops at higher kit sizes. Bacteriostatic water for reconstitution is available as a companion supply, and our reconstitution calculator computes solvent volumes and resulting concentrations for any vial size.
Orders ship from our domestic US facility. In-stock lots dispatch within 48 hours, packaged for thermal stability, with tracking provided on every shipment. See the shipping policy for full details on carriers and delivery windows.
We support card payment where available alongside cryptocurrency (Bitcoin and other major coins) and bank transfer. Crypto checkout is processed automatically — see how to pay with Bitcoin for a step-by-step walkthrough. All transactions are for research-use-only materials.
US-based supply with 48-hour dispatch, multi-vial research kits, and responsive support. Multi-vial research kits keep per-vial cost low for labs running repeated assays. Questions before ordering? Contact our team — we respond within one business day.
Melanotan-2 (MT-2) — frequently asked questions
Cyclic alpha-MSH analog studied for melanocortin-receptor activation and pigmentation research. It is also listed as MT2, melanotan 2, melanotan II. Eon Research supplies Melanotan-2 (MT-2) as a lyophilized research-use-only reference standard for in-vitro laboratory research.
Eon Research sells Melanotan-2 (MT-2) at eonbio.io and ships it from our US facility with tracking. It is available in 10mg vials, in 1-, 2-, 3- and 10-vial kits, from $29 per kit. For research use only.
Add bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial and swirl gently until the powder dissolves — never shake. Concentration is the vial mass divided by the diluent volume: a 10mg Melanotan-2 (MT-2) vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water is 5 mg/mL. The Melanotan-2 (MT-2) reconstitution calculator on eonbio.io charts every vial size at 1, 2 and 3 mL.
Store lyophilized Melanotan-2 (MT-2) at −20°C for long-term storage or 2–8°C short-term, protected from light and moisture. After reconstitution, keep the solution at 2–8°C and minimize freeze–thaw cycles.
The CAS number of Melanotan-2 (MT-2) is 121062-08-6.
No. Melanotan-2 (MT-2) from Eon Research is sold strictly as a research-use-only chemical for in-vitro laboratory research. It is not a drug, food or supplement, and it is not for human or veterinary use.
