GHK-Cu 100mg - the copper-binding tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, supplied as a high-purity powder for matrix and gene expression research.
Research Use Only:This compound is intended exclusively for in vitro laboratory research applications. Not for human or veterinary consumption.
GHK-Cu-100mg (blue) research overview
GHK-Cu is the copper complex of glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, a tripeptide first isolated from human plasma. Its defining property is a high affinity for copper(II), and much of the research literature turns on that: the peptide is studied as a copper carrier as much as a signaling molecule in its own right.
Published work has examined its effect on collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in fibroblast culture, its association with metalloproteinase and antiprotease expression, and its influence on antioxidant enzyme systems. Broader gene-expression profiling has reported effects across a wide range of transcripts, which is why GHK-Cu appears in skin remodelling, wound-model and anti-fibrotic research as well as in work on copper homeostasis itself. Plasma concentrations of the peptide are reported to decline with age, and that observation drives a separate strand of the literature.
This listing is 100mg of the salt form supplied as a blue powder, the colour coming from the copper complex. Savage Labs also stocks a prepared 10mL topical serum, and GHK-Cu is the largest component of both the GLOW and KLOW blends - the powder is the right format when a protocol needs to control concentration directly. Store at -20 degrees Celsius. For in vitro laboratory research only. Not for human or veterinary use.

Questions about this listing
- What form does GHK-Cu-100mg (blue) come in?
Powder (blue, copper complex) The size options listed on this page — 100mg — are what is available, and the vial labelling shown in the product images above is the reference for what a vial contains.
- How should GHK-Cu-100mg (blue) be stored?
Store at -20°C. Storage requirements differ across the catalog — some listings are refrigerated, others held at -20°C, others at room temperature — so read this row rather than assuming from a neighbouring product.
- Does Savage Labs supply a diluent for GHK-Cu-100mg (blue)?
Bacteriostatic water is stocked separately in 3mL and 10mL vials. Savage Labs does not specify a reconstitution volume, a working concentration, or a basis for calculating either — those are determined by the protocol the material is used in, not by this catalog.
- What does the 99.0% figure on this listing mean?
It is the purity reported for this material. It is a reported value rather than one Savage Labs has independently verified for the lot you receive, and it does not describe net peptide content. How peptide purity is reported and net peptide content cover what the number does and does not tell you.
- What documentation is available for GHK-Cu-100mg (blue)?
Batch-specific certificates of analysis and test methods on request. Confirm that any report matches the lot you intend to order — reading a peptide certificate of analysis covers which field answers which question. Ask about documentation for this listing, or see the full FAQ for ordering, shipping and returns.
- What else is grouped with GHK-Cu-100mg (blue)?
It is catalogued under Anti-Aging, where the category page describes what separates the compounds in the group.
Ordering, payment, shipping and returns are answered on the full FAQ.
