GHK-Cu 50mg – Research Use Only

For research use only. Not for human consumption. Not for veterinary use. Not a medicinal product.

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide that has been investigated in scientific research involving peptide chemistry, copper coordination, cellular biology and biochemical signalling. GHK refers to glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, a short peptide capable of forming a complex with copper ions. The resulting GHK-Cu complex has attracted scientific interest due to its distinctive molecular and biochemical characteristics.

Product Overview

GHK-Cu is supplied as a research compound for suitably qualified researchers conducting controlled laboratory investigations. Scientific literature has examined the interaction between the GHK peptide and copper, including studies investigating its molecular structure, coordination behaviour and presence within biological systems.

Research into this compound has included biochemical, cellular and experimental investigations. Published studies have explored the characteristics of GHK and its copper complex, providing researchers with information relevant to peptide chemistry and copper-associated molecular processes. These observations relate to specific experimental conditions and should not be interpreted as evidence of suitability, efficacy or safety for human or veterinary use.

This product is supplied solely as a research material. It is not supplied as a food, food supplement, cosmetic, medicine, veterinary medicine or therapeutic product. No claims are made that GHK-Cu can diagnose, treat, cure, prevent or alleviate any disease, illness or medical condition.

Research Applications

For suitably qualified researchers, GHK-Cu may be of interest in areas including peptide chemistry, analytical chemistry, copper coordination research, molecular biology and biochemical investigation. Potential laboratory applications may include peptide identification, analytical characterisation, copper-binding studies, stability assessment and controlled investigations of peptide-related molecular interactions.

Researchers should independently determine whether the material is appropriate for their intended experimental application. Appropriate laboratory procedures, validated analytical methods, suitable protective equipment and relevant safety controls should be used when handling research compounds.

No instructions for administration, dosage, injection, reconstitution or personal use are provided with this product. It is intended exclusively for legitimate laboratory research conducted by appropriately qualified personnel and within suitable controlled laboratory environments.

GHK-Cu should be distinguished from finished cosmetic preparations, pharmaceutical products or other consumer formulations that may contain copper peptides. The presence of the same compound in another type of product does not mean that the research material supplied through this website is an authorised medicinal or cosmetic product.

The interaction between GHK and copper is an established area of biochemical research. Researchers investigating this material should consider the specific chemical form, experimental conditions and analytical methodology relevant to their individual studies.

Quality & Laboratory Research

Research compounds should be handled by suitably qualified personnel using appropriate laboratory procedures and relevant safety practices. Researchers are responsible for confirming the identity, suitability and analytical characteristics of materials required for their particular experimental work.

Where applicable, researchers should review available product specifications and analytical documentation before beginning laboratory work. Storage and handling should follow the stated requirements for the material, while disposal should be carried out according to appropriate institutional procedures and applicable laboratory safety requirements.

Experimental observations may differ according to research methodology, analytical techniques, peptide preparation, copper concentration, experimental conditions and the biological or chemical model selected.

UK Regulatory Notice

The regulatory status of products in the United Kingdom can depend on factors including composition, intended purpose, pharmacological properties, wording and presentation. The MHRA considers explicit and implicit claims together with how products are presented through websites, packaging, advertising and promotional material when determining whether a product may fall within the definition of a medicinal product.

Accordingly, this listing is deliberately limited to factual research information. GHK-Cu is presented solely as a laboratory research compound and is not marketed as a treatment, medicine, supplement, cosmetic or consumer health product.

For research use only. Not for human consumption. Not for veterinary use. Not a medicinal product. Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or medical condition.

IMPORTANT: This product is intended for laboratory research purposes ONLY and is NOT for human consumption.

Researchers should follow all applicable safety protocols and guidelines when handling research peptides in laboratory settings.

For reconstitution in research applications, bacteriostatic water is commonly used. Inject the water slowly into the vial, aiming for the side of the glass to avoid damaging the peptide. Allow the peptide to dissolve naturally without shaking.

Store lyophilized peptides at -20°C for long-term storage (up to 24 months)
Short-term storage (1-3 months): 2-8°C is acceptable
Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 4-6 weeks
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
Protect from light and moisture
Keep sealed until ready for use
