Beyond the literature: here's what third-party Certificate-of-Analysis records (Janoshik, BCC, Auxlabs) say about real Melanotan II and PT-141 batches we've tested. Aggregate, public data — cross-reference against the studies below.
We tested 1238 Melanotan II batches across 559 manufacturers, 99.67% avg purity.
We tested 1140 PT-141 batches across 488 manufacturers, 99.71% avg purity.
We hold deeper lab coverage on Melanotan II (1238 batches tested). PT-141 edges ahead on average measured purity (99.67% vs 99.71%) — a narrow gap; weigh it against failed-batch and underdose counts above.
Studies in our corpus that mention both Melanotan II and PT-141 — the gold-standard direct comparison evidence.
