GHK-CU 100mg is a synthetic copper-binding peptide intended exclusively for laboratory research applications. It is commonly referenced in studies on peptide signaling, tissue research, and tissue and matrix molecular biology.

This product is strictly for research purposes only and is not approved for human consumption, clinical use, or veterinary applications.

What Is GHK-CU?

GHK-CU (Copper Peptide GHK-Cu) is a naturally occurring tripeptide that binds copper ions. In controlled laboratory studies, GHK-CU is utilized to investigate:

• Peptide–metal interactions and copper signaling
• Cellular and molecular tissue responses in vitro or ex vivo
• Mechanistic studies in tissue and matrix biology
• Peptide-mediated growth factor modulation

All uses are strictly limited to scientific research and non-clinical experimentation.

Research Applications of GHK-CU 100mg

GHK-CU 100mg is suitable for laboratory studies focused on:

• Peptide Signaling and Cellular Pathways – Investigating mechanisms of copper-binding peptides
• Tissue and Cellular Research – Studies on cellular responses and tissue models in vitro
• Molecular Biology & Biochemistry – Exploring peptide interactions, growth factor pathways, and metalloprotein regulation
• Experimental Tissue Model Research – Laboratory investigation of peptide-mediated cellular responses
• Laboratory Peptide Research – Controlled experiments with synthetic copper peptides

All applications are strictly non-clinical and for scientific investigation only.

Important Legal Disclaimer

For Research Purposes Only
GHK-CU 100mg is intended strictly for laboratory research and scientific investigation. It is not approved by Health Canada, FDA, or any other regulatory authority. This product is not for human consumption, medical, or veterinary use. By purchasing, you agree to use it exclusively for lawful laboratory research purposes.

Compound identity and specification

Identity data for GHK-Cu, published so the material can be checked against an independent record rather than taken on trust. The formula, mass and registry number below are verified against PubChem and can be looked up directly.

Analytical note — GHK-Cu. This is a metal complex, not a plain peptide, and it behaves accordingly: the copper can dissociate on-column under acidic reverse-phase conditions, so an analysis may report the free tripeptide rather than the complex. Two CAS numbers circulate because one belongs to the peptide and one to the complex; both are given above rather than merged.

Identity references The molecular formula, molecular mass and CAS registry number above are taken from the PubChem record linked in the table, not from a supplier datasheet, so every figure can be checked against an independent source in one click. Sequences are given as reported in the peptide literature, in the one-letter or three-letter convention as appropriate, with any non-standard residue named in full. Where a compound exists in more than one form — a free peptide and a metal complex, a fragment and its parent protein, a modified and an unmodified analog — the form supplied is the one identified here, and the mass on the certificate of analysis is what distinguishes it.
