What researchers ordered with GHK-Cu









About GHK-Cu
GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, a tripeptide first identified in human plasma. It is also known as copper tripeptide-1.
GHK-Cu is one of the most studied peptides in dermal research. Published work has examined its effects on collagen and extracellular matrix synthesis, skin remodeling models and gene expression.
Available in 50mg and 100mg vials of lyophilized powder. The current lot was tested by an independent lab for HPLC purity, net content and endotoxin. Match the batch number on your label to its report in our COA library.
Every tested lot has its COA published under the batch number on your label. For laboratory research use only.
COA & batch history
Every GHK-Cu lot we've published, with its lab report. Older batches stay online for labels already out there.
HPLC purity is the share of the sample measured as GHK-Cu; on its own it doesn't confirm identity or sterility. The endotoxin screen is a pass or fail against the lab's limit for bacterial endotoxin, not a statement about safety or effects.
Literature references
Published studies on GHK-Cu, listed for researchers who want the primary sources. Most are preclinical (in vitro or animal) work. Listing a paper is not a claim about the product, and nothing here is guidance for human or veterinary use.
