Research overview
Kits Peptides is a Canadian research peptide supplier based in Kitsilano, Vancouver, BC. We supply PT-141 (bremelanotide), a melanocortin-receptor agonist, for laboratory research use only, shipped tracked across Canada.
PT-141 is a synthetic cyclic peptide from the melanocortin family, also catalogued under the name Bremelanotide. It carries the molecular formula C50H68N14O10 and the CAS number 189691-06-3, and structurally it is a cyclic analog of the melanocortin peptide alpha-MSH. Kits Peptides stocks it in a single 10mg presentation. Within the literature, PT-141 shows up mainly in melanocortin-system research, the field concerned with the melanocortin receptor subtypes (MC1R through MC5R) and how peptide ligands interact with them. Groups working in peptide pharmacology and receptor-binding studies reference it as a cyclic melanocortin-receptor peptide. We supply it purely as a reference material for laboratory research use only, with no human or veterinary application. Each vial ships as lyophilized reference material and comes with an independent third-party certificate of analysis matched to its lot, so the identity and purity on paper correspond to the exact vial in hand. Orders leave our Vancouver facility with tracking and reach research customers across Canada. Anyone looking to buy PT-141 in Canada will find this listing third-party tested and dispatched domestically.
PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a cyclic melanocortin peptide referenced in melanocortin-receptor and peptide-pharmacology research. It is supplied as a lyophilized reference standard for laboratory research use only, lot-numbered, with the certificate published for any lot that has been independently analysed.
Information provided for research reference only. No claims are made regarding safety or efficacy for any use in humans or animals.
What PT-141 is
PT-141, also catalogued as bremelanotide, is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. The structure is Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-OH: an acetylated norleucine, then a lactam ring closed between aspartate and lysine, with a D-phenylalanine in place of the natural L form.
CAS 189691-06-3, formula C50H68N14O10, molar mass 1025.18 g/mol. It is a metabolite of Melanotan II and differs from it at a single position: PT-141 terminates in a free acid where Melanotan II terminates in an amide.
What the research literature covers
PT-141 appears in melanocortin receptor literature as an agonist with reported activity at the MC1, MC3 and MC4 receptors, and it is commonly compared against Melanotan II to separate the effects of the two C-terminal forms.
Published studies have used it to probe MC4 receptor signalling in rodent models, and receptor-binding assays characterise its affinity profile across the melanocortin family.
A licensed prescription medicine containing PT-141 is approved and sold in Canada under other brand names. What we supply is NOT that medicine. It is an unapproved laboratory reagent, not manufactured, released or supplied to pharmaceutical standards, and not for human or veterinary use. If you are looking for the licensed product, a pharmacy is the only lawful route to it.
Kits Peptides supplies PT-141 as a laboratory reagent. Describing this literature is not an offer of it for any purpose studied in that literature, and nothing on this page is guidance for use in humans or animals.
What is in the vial
PT-141 is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed glass vial. The label carries the compound name, the nominal mass in milligrams, our batch code and the research-use statement.
Vials ship unopened. Store as the label directs on arrival; the storage guide in the research library covers the general handling of lyophilized peptides. Bacteriostatic water is sold separately as a supply item and is not included unless your order lists it.
Sizes and availability
PT-141 is sold out at present. The waitlist button on a sold-out size records your email against that exact size and emails you automatically when a lot lands.
How this lot is documented
Each order records the batch that filled it, and the batch code is printed on the vial label. Where a third-party certificate of analysis exists for the production lot of PT-141 we received, it is linked in the certificate section above and on the lab results page.
Read those certificates for what they are: they were issued by the laboratory named on them to our supplier for that production lot, and our batch code is the internal receipt reference we assign, so it does not appear on the PDF. We do not currently commission testing in our own name, and product titles make no purity claim for lots without a certificate. The lab standards page explains the full position.
Shipping from Vancouver
Every order is packed in Kitsilano, Vancouver and ships domestically. Nothing crosses a border, so there is no international transit and no customs hold.
Metro Vancouver addresses can choose same-day courier delivery, priced by distance from our dispatch point; the cutoff for same-day is shown at checkout once you enter a postal code. Everywhere else in Canada ships tracked Canada Post, with the tracking number on your confirmation page and on the order tracking page. Free shipping applies above the threshold shown on the shipping page.
How to order
Choose a size, add it to the cart and check out. Checkout records a short attestation that you are 19 or older and purchasing for laboratory research. Payment is by Interac e-Transfer, card, or cryptocurrency; the confirmation page shows the exact steps for the method you picked, and the same steps are emailed to you.
If a size shows as sold out, the waitlist button on that size emails you when it is back. Quantity discounts apply automatically above the subtotals listed on the shop page and do not stack with promo codes.
Common questions
- What is PT-141?
- A synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analogue of alpha-MSH, also called bremelanotide. Structure Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-OH, CAS 189691-06-3, molar mass 1025.18 g/mol.
- What is the difference between PT-141 and Melanotan II?
- One position. PT-141 ends in a free acid, Melanotan II ends in an amide, a difference of roughly 0.98 Da: C50H68N14O10 at about 1025.2 against C50H69N15O9 at about 1024.2. PT-141 is a metabolite of Melanotan II.
- Can a certificate distinguish PT-141 from Melanotan II?
- Not by intact mass alone on a low-resolution instrument. The 0.98 Da gap between them is smaller than the 1.003 Da spacing between adjacent isotope peaks, so the two isotope envelopes overlap. Distinguishing them needs high-resolution accurate mass, a fragmentation experiment, or chromatography against a reference standard. Worth asking about, because it is the single most confusable pair in this catalogue.
- Is PT-141 in stock?
- Not at the moment. The waitlist button on a sold-out size emails you when a lot lands.
- Is PT-141 approved in Canada?
- Bremelanotide is approved as a prescription medicine under a brand name. What we supply is not that medicine. Ours is an unapproved laboratory reagent, not manufactured or released to pharmaceutical standards and not for human or veterinary use.
- Is there a certificate of analysis for PT-141?
- Where a third-party certificate exists for the production lot we received, it is linked on this page and on the lab results page. Those certificates were issued to our supplier.
- How is it shipped once back in stock?
- Same-day courier across Metro Vancouver and tracked Canada Post everywhere else in Canada.
- How do I pay?
- Interac e-Transfer, card, or cryptocurrency.
