From$50.00
GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine copper complex, CAS 49557-75-7) is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide first identified in human plasma and widely studied in dermatological and regenerative research for its reported influence on gene expression, collagen and elastin synthesis, and antioxidant enzyme activity. Its copper-chelating structure is central to its proposed mechanism, facilitating interactions with copper-dependent enzymatic pathways implicated in tissue remodeling. Peptides7 sources GHK-Cu exclusively through 99 Purity Peptides, with every batch independently verified by HPLC and LC-MS prior to release and accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis.
Research Use Only. This compound is intended strictly for laboratory research and development purposes. It is explicitly not for human consumption, diagnostic purposes, or veterinary use.
GHK-Cu is supplied as a lyophilized powder, available in 50mg, 100mg, and 200mg vial sizes to support a range of research protocol concentrations. Each vial displays a unique batch number tied to its Certificate of Analysis.
The copper-complexed structure gives GHK-Cu solutions a characteristic pale blue to blue-green tint when reconstituted — a visual indicator consistent with the compound's copper content, not an impurity.
GHK-Cu should be reconstituted with bacteriostatic or sterile water under standard aseptic technique and is intended strictly for in-vitro laboratory research applications.
Compound FAQs
GHK-Cu is a copper-binding tripeptide (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine, CAS 49557-75-7) studied in research contexts for its reported roles in gene expression modulation, collagen synthesis, and wound-healing pathways.
The blue-green tint comes from the copper ion complexed within the peptide structure. This coloration is expected and consistent with authentic GHK-Cu — it is not a sign of contamination.
GHK-Cu is available in 50mg, 100mg, and 200mg vials, each offered as a single unit or a 10-kit for larger research programs.
Each batch is tested by an independent third-party laboratory using HPLC for purity quantification and LC-MS for molecular identity confirmation, with results published in a batch-specific COA.
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic or sterile water using standard aseptic technique. Store the lyophilized vial refrigerated or frozen and away from light; once reconstituted, refrigerate and use according to your protocol's stability requirements.
GHK-Cu is frequently referenced in dermal regeneration, collagen synthesis, antioxidant enzyme activity, and wound-healing research models.
No. This product is a Research Use Only laboratory compound intended for in-vitro study, not a finished cosmetic formulation, and is not intended for topical application outside a research setting.
Yes. Every vial is labeled with a unique batch number that corresponds to its own published Certificate of Analysis.
