Copper Peptides

GHK-Cu 50mg

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide found in human blood plasma, urine and saliva, where reported plasma levels decline with age. In cell-culture and animal studies it has been described as a signal released following tissue injury, and reported to influence collagen and fibroblast activity, angiogenesis and oxidative stress. These are findings in laboratory models, not established effects in humans.

About GHK-Cu 50mg

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring tripeptide, glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, first isolated from human blood plasma and studied as a complex with copper(II). The published literature on it is predominantly in vitro and in animal models. Cell-culture work has reported effects on collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, fibroblast activity and antioxidant behaviour, and rodent studies have reported faster closure in experimental wound and burn models, with one frequently cited rodent burn study reporting roughly a 33% increase in healing rate. Reports discussing skin appearance describe formulated topical products, not this material. Nothing here is established for use in humans, and no such use is intended or supported. This 50mg vial provides substantial material for dermatological and wound-healing research protocols.

Storage and reconstitution

Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C protected from light and moisture. Reconstitute in sterile water. Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. Lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature for shipping and short-term storage.

Shipping within Canada

Orders placed before 2:00 PM Pacific on a business day are packed and dispatched the same day. Orders placed after that cut-off, or on a weekend or statutory holiday, are dispatched on the next business day. Parcels leave British Columbia, Canada and travel entirely within the country, so nothing on this order crosses a border, clears customs or is held by CBSA. Orders over CA$200 ship free; see the shipping page for transit times by province.
