what is pt-141?

PT-141 (bremelanotide) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide melanocortin analog structurally related to alpha-MSH. Verve supplies it as a research compound for laboratory use only, not for human or veterinary use. It is catalogued under skin & glow as a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide melanocortin agonist.

PT-141, also known as bremelanotide, is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of the melanocortin family, structurally related to alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone and to the earlier research analog Melanotan II. Verve supplies it as a high-purity research compound for laboratory melanocortin-receptor research.

In cellular research, PT-141 is used as a reference agonist for characterizing binding and downstream signaling at melanocortin receptors, principally MC1R, MC3R, and MC4R, including cAMP accumulation assays and receptor-selectivity profiling. Verve's PT-141 is manufactured in the United States, screened by HPLC to a 99%+ purity standard, and published with a batch-level certificate of analysis.

how pure is pt-141?

purity, third-party testing & the certificate of analysis

Every batch of verve PT-141is synthesized and vial-filled in the United States and screened by an independent, accredited laboratory. Chromatographic purity and quantity are measured by HPLC-UV/VIS; where the panel includes them, endotoxin is screened by LAL and sterility by USP <71>, with the sterility result reported as no growth detected or as pending while the culture is still running. Products are manufactured to a 99%+ purity standard where stated.

Published certificates for the lots currently in our COA library cover part of the range; a published report for this compound is not in the library yet. Orders placed Monday–Friday ship by 2pm CT, free over $100, with damage protection in transit and full US tracking.
