GHK-Cu

About this material

GHK-Cu is a synthetic copper tripeptide complex consisting of the naturally occurring amino acid sequence glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK) coordinated with divalent copper (Cu2+) ions to form a chemically defined metallopeptide. Composed of three amino acids, the peptide component is manufactured using precision Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS) under controlled production parameters designed to support sequence fidelity and molecular consistency prior to copper complexation. Following synthesis, the peptide undergoes purification using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) before controlled metal coordination and lyophilization.

Each production batch undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization to verify molecular identity, chromatographic purity, peptide content, copper complex integrity, and overall physicochemical quality prior to release. Standardized manufacturing controls support reproducible complex formation and consistent batch quality. Every production lot is accompanied by a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting analytical verification, quality control review, and complete manufacturing traceability, providing a well-characterized metallopeptide reference material for scientific and analytical laboratory research.
