Buy GHK-Cu UK – 50 mg and 100 mg vials

Looking for GHK-Cu UK? Ultra Peptides supplies GHK-Cu as a lyophilised research compound in 50 mg and 100 mg vials (50 mg for £19.99, 100 mg for £24.50), dispatched from the UK the same working day when you order and pay before 2 pm. The copper(II) complex of the tripeptide glycyl-histidyl-lysine. The 50 mg batch tested at 99.86% purity by Marfleet Analytical Services.

What is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is the copper complex of GHK (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine), a tripeptide first isolated from human plasma, where its concentration declines with age. The peptide binds copper(II) with high affinity, giving the powder its characteristic blue colour.

It is available in 50 mg and 100 mg vials. The 50 mg batch was tested by Marfleet Analytical Services in Hull at 99.86% HPLC purity.

GHK-Cu research overview

Researchers who order GHK-Cu UK from us typically work in the following areas. All of the work summarised here is preclinical – cell-culture and animal-model research – and is not evidence of any effect in people.

Extracellular matrix and collagen

GHK-Cu is widely used in fibroblast cultures to study collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycan synthesis and matrix remodelling.

Gene-expression studies

Broad gene-expression analyses have linked GHK to the regulation of thousands of human genes, including antioxidant and DNA-repair pathways.

Copper transport

As a copper carrier, GHK-Cu is also studied in research on copper delivery to cells and copper-dependent enzymes.

GHK-Cu specifications

Purity and independent lab testing

The current GHK-Cu batch was analysed by Marfleet Analytical Services, an independent laboratory, and measured at 99.86% purity by HPLC. The full certificate is shown below and on our lab reports page.

Peptides are synthesised to the published sequence, lyophilised and sealed under controlled conditions, then stored cold and away from light until they are packed for dispatch.

Reconstituting and storing GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu arrives as a dry, lyophilised powder. Most researchers reconstitute it with bacteriostatic water, adding the diluent slowly down the inside of the vial and swirling gently rather than shaking. Use our reconstitution calculator to work out the concentration for the volume you add.

Unopened vials keep best frozen at −20 °C, or in the fridge at 2–8 °C for shorter periods, always protected from light. Once reconstituted, keep the solution refrigerated and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles – splitting it into aliquots helps. Our storage guide covers shelf life in detail.

Laboratory handling checklist for GHK-Cu

• Let the sealed vial reach room temperature before opening, so moisture does not condense on the powder.
• Wipe the rubber septum with 70% isopropyl alcohol and work on a clean surface.
• Add the diluent slowly down the inside wall of the vial and swirl gently until the powder has dissolved – do not shake.
• Label the vial with the concentration, the date of reconstitution and the batch number.
• Keep reconstituted solutions at 2–8 °C, protected from light, and use them within the stability window of your protocol.
• Record lot numbers in your lab notebook so results can be traced back to a specific batch.
