Frequently asked questions

What is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. It is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide studied in extracellular-matrix and copper-transport research.

What is the amino acid sequence of GHK-Cu?

Gly-His-Lys, complexed with copper(II).

How should GHK-Cu be stored?

Store unopened vials of freeze-dried powder at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. Short periods at room temperature in transit do not affect lyophilised material. Let a vial reach room temperature before opening so condensation does not form inside.

How is GHK-Cu tested?

Each lot is sent to an independent third-party laboratory for analysis, and the certificate of analysis is published on our Lab Results page when the lot is released. Until then, the product shows "COA pending".

How does GHK-Cu ship?

We ship within the United States only, by FedEx 2Day, cold-packed and tracked, with delivery expected by 5 p.m. on the scheduled delivery date. Orders placed before 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on business days ship the same day. No weekend dispatch. Shipping is free on peptide orders over $250.
