Each vial ships with structural data and lot identifiers for the compound, plus a Certificate of Analysis documenting purity and identity. Ready for the bench. Synthesized via solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), purified by reverse-phase HPLC, verified by mass spectrometry, and tested for sterility and endotoxin load. Every spec is documented on the signed Certificate of Analysis that ships with your vial.
A short, sourced summary of where GHK-Cu appears in the published research record. For context only. Not a claim, not a protocol, not advice.
GHK-Cu is a copper-binding tripeptide composed of glycine, histidine, and lysine (Gly-His-Lys) complexed with a copper ion. The peptide was first isolated from human plasma in 1973 and has been studied extensively for its role in copper transport and tissue-related signaling pathways.
In published preclinical literature, GHK-Cu has been investigated across cell-culture and rodent models examining its interactions with fibroblast biology, extracellular matrix proteins, copper-dependent enzymes, and inflammatory signaling cascades. Plasma concentrations of GHK have been documented to decline with age in healthy human studies, which has driven academic interest in its biology.
The compound is most-cited in the literature alongside investigations of collagen and elastin synthesis, antioxidant pathways, and copper homeostasis. It has not been approved by the FDA for any therapeutic indication and remains classified as a research compound.

That blue tint is the chemistry working as expected. GHK-Cu is a copper-binding tripeptide — the GHK peptide chelates a Cu²⁺ ion, and that copper coordination is what gives the lyophilized powder its characteristic light blue color. A pure white GHK-Cu powder would actually be a red flag (it would suggest the copper is not bound or that the product is just GHK without copper). The Certificate of Analysis confirms the copper-bound form by mass spectrometry.
GHK is the bare tripeptide (Gly-His-Lys). GHK-Cu is the same tripeptide bound to a copper(II) ion — the active form most documented in the published research literature. The copper coordination is what enables interactions with the copper-dependent enzymes studied in the wound healing and ECM literature. Most peer-reviewed studies on this molecule reference the Cu-bound form. This product is GHK-Cu, not bare GHK.
Every lot is tested by reverse-phase HPLC and certified at ≥99% purity. The Certificate of Analysis lists the exact lot purity (most lots run between 99.5% and 99.9%). Your COA ships with the vial and is also retrievable by lot number through our online verifier.
Testing is done by BioRegen Analytical, an independent third-party lab. Every batch goes through HPLC purity, LC-MS identity confirmation, sterility screening, and LAL endotoxin testing. The signed Certificate of Analysis ships with each vial. Same lot number, same COA, every time.
