About GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, first isolated from human plasma by Loren Pickart in 1973. It is one of the most studied copper peptides in cell and skin research.

Published work deals with collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in fibroblasts and with gene-expression profiles in cell models.

The 100 mg batch was analysed by Janoshik Analytical on 15 September 2026 (task #217016): purity 99.603 %, 93.44 mg measured (GHK 78.23 mg, Cu 15.21 mg). Supplied as a freeze-dried powder, for in-vitro research only.
