Batch-specific documentation may include HPLC purity, identity confirmation and lot information. Refer to the supplied COA or the COA policy for current documentation scope.

Reconstitution and handling

Allow lyophilised material to equilibrate before opening to reduce condensation risk. Add validated solvent slowly down the vial wall, avoid vigorous shaking, and record the final concentration in the laboratory notebook or LIMS.

Use aseptic technique, calibrated pipettes or syringes, and validated diluent choices for the assay system. Reconstituted materials should be aliquoted where appropriate to reduce repeated freeze-thaw exposure.

Storage

Store unopened material according to the stated condition: -20°C recommended (research-only). Keep vials sealed, dry and protected from light. Reconstituted solutions should be stored under validated laboratory conditions and discarded according to internal SOPs and applicable research-waste rules.

Research-use statement

FAQs

What is GHK-Cu used for in research?

GHK-Cu is studied in wound-closure assays, dermal-cell models, collagen-expression workflows and inflammation-pathway research. It is a naturally occurring tripeptide with copper binding.

How does GHK-Cu work?

GHK-Cu chelates copper ions and is studied in relation to collagen-expression, glycosaminoglycan-production and extracellular-matrix signalling workflows.

What is the origin of GHK-Cu?

GHK is a naturally occurring tripeptide found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. Concentration changes with age have generated interest in matrix-biology research.

How should GHK-Cu be stored?

Store lyophilised GHK-Cu at -20°C. Reconstituted solutions should be kept at 2-8°C and used within 4 weeks.

What purity is your GHK-Cu?

Our GHK-Cu is ≥99% pure as verified by HPLC. Each batch includes a Certificate of Analysis.

Can GHK-Cu affect gene expression?

Research suggests GHK-Cu influences expression of genes related to extracellular-matrix signalling, antioxidant pathways and collagen production.

How do I reconstitute GHK-Cu?

Reconstitute in sterile water. GHK-Cu is highly soluble and dissolves readily.

What sizes are available?

GHK-Cu is available in 50mg, 100mg, and 500mg quantities.

What is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper) is a copper-binding tripeptide naturally found in human plasma. It is studied for roles in tissue regeneration, collagen synthesis, antioxidant activity, and gene expression regulation. CAS number 49557-75-7, PubChem CID 73587.

Why is GHK-Cu sold as 500 mg powder?

The 500 mg bulk powder format serves research labs requiring larger quantities for cell-culture assays, stability studies, or formulation development. It provides significant cost efficiency per milligram compared to small-vial formats.

What solvent is compatible with GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is water-soluble and dissolves readily in sterile water or phosphate-buffered saline. It can also be dissolved in dilute ethanol or DMSO for specific applications.

What is the PubChem and Wikidata ID for GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is registered in PubChem under CID 73587 and in the Wikidata knowledge graph under Q5520780. CAS number 49557-75-7.
