Description
Research Use Only. This material is supplied for in-vitro laboratory research by qualified professionals. It is not a medicine, supplement, cosmetic ingredient or veterinary product, and it is not for human or animal consumption. The research summary below describes published scientific literature; it is not a claim of effect, benefit or suitability for any person.
GHK-Cu, short for the glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper complex, is a naturally occurring tripeptide that was first identified in human plasma in 1973. Its activity is tied to its ability to bind copper(II) ions and to influence gene expression across a wide range of pathways. Supplied as lyophilised material for in-vitro laboratory research.
Research context
Published work that has examined GHK-Cu includes studies in dermal tissue systems, gene-expression work, tissue-repair models, neuronal cell research, pulmonary models, and investigations into antimicrobial activity.
The product is intended for scientific research and development purposes only. Chemical substances shall not be used as a drug, medicine, active substance, medical aid, cosmetic product, a substance for production of a cosmetic product neither for human consumption that is any food or food supplement or otherwise similarly used on humans or animals. Intended only for in-vitro research, such as Receptor-ligand binding studies, Enzyme activity assays, Cell proliferation assays, Cell signaling assays, Epitope mapping, etc. Do not order for personal use, clinical use, injection, compounding, resale as a supplement, or any project that requires a specific assay not shown for the relevant batch.
Frequently asked questions
What is GHK-CU used for in research?
GHK-CU is a research compound studied in preclinical and in-vitro literature. Peptra Labs supplies it strictly for laboratory research use only, not for human or veterinary use.
Can I buy GHK-CU in Europe from Peptra Labs?
Peptra Labs supplies GHK-CU to European laboratory buyers. Orders contain a sealed, clearly labelled vial, with EU shipping and online Certificate of Analysis information for each lot that has been tested. No physical Certificate of Analysis or research papers are promised inside the parcel.
Does GHK-CU have a Certificate of Analysis?
Where a lot of GHK-CU has been tested, its Certificate of Analysis information is published in the Peptra Labs lab reports archive. Use the online report to review the batch number, HPLC purity data, test method, and source link, then compare the batch information with the vial label. If no report is listed for your lot, none has been published yet.
What purity signals should I check for GHK-CU?
Check the vial label, batch number, available HPLC purity data, Certificate of Analysis source, supplier identity, storage guidance, and the absence of human-use claims. A useful supplier page should make these checks clear instead of relying on generic purity promises.
How is GHK-CU stored in research labs?
Keep GHK-CU sealed, protected from light and stored as stated on the label for long-term laboratory storage. After laboratory preparation for in-vitro work, follow your institution's validated handling procedure.
Human or veterinary use?
No. GHK-CU from Peptra Labs is supplied strictly as laboratory research material and must not be used as a human or veterinary product.
