Nonapeptide-1 200mg is a nine-residue cosmetic peptide powder from Peptide Sciences, studied for its role in pigmentation signalling.
Nonapeptide-1 Research Overview
Nonapeptide-1 is designed as a competitive antagonist of alpha-MSH at the MC1 receptor, reducing the signal that triggers melanin production. It is widely tested in cosmetic research on uneven skin tone.

Research Considerations
Researchers evaluating Nonapeptide-1 usually begin with MC1R binding or cAMP assays in melanocytes, then move to formulation studies measuring stability and penetration.
Quality Control, COA and Shipping
Peptide Sciences releases a batch only after HPLC purity and mass-spec identity testing confirm the specification. Your order ships with the matching Certificate of Analysis, packed with cold packs to protect the lyophilised material in transit.
