Full Description
GHK-Cu (100mg) Copper Tripeptide Complex
GHK-Cu is the specialized copper(II) complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, originally identified in human plasma during the 1970s. In the presence of copper(II), it binds to form a stable coordination complex—which is the exact material supplied here rather than the uncomplexed free peptide. This copper integration is responsible for the distinct blue coloration characteristic of the lyophilised solid.
