Research-Grade Copper Tripeptide (Lyophilized Powder)
GHK-Cu is a research-grade copper tripeptide supplied as a 100 mg lyophilized powder for laboratory and analytical research applications. This naturally occurring tripeptide, complexed with a copper ion, is widely studied in controlled laboratory settings for its role in cellular signaling, extracellular matrix interactions, collagen-related pathways, tissue-remodeling mechanisms, and inflammatory signaling.
Designed exclusively for in vitro research, GHK-Cu provides investigators with a well-characterized peptide suitable for studies involving peptide chemistry, molecular biology, cell culture, and analytical method development. Every batch is manufactured to defined purity specifications and supported by comprehensive quality-control documentation.
At Solas Science, every batch undergoes seven independent quality assessments before release. Researchers receive access to a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA), allowing verification of analytical results before incorporating the material into laboratory workflows.

Manufactured for Research Consistency
Reliable research begins with consistent materials. GHK-Cu is synthesized using established peptide manufacturing processes and supplied in a lyophilized format to support laboratory handling and storage.
Each production batch is assigned a unique lot number and undergoes analytical verification before release. Batch-specific documentation allows researchers to review quality data associated with the exact material received, supporting reproducibility and traceability throughout the research process.
Seven-Parameter Quality Testing
Every batch of GHK-Cu completes a comprehensive quality-control program before shipment.
Purity (HPLC)
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is performed to evaluate peptide purity and verify that the batch meets defined quality specifications.
Identity (MS/NMR)
Mass spectrometry and/or nuclear magnetic resonance analysis confirms the molecular identity of the peptide and verifies consistency with the expected compound.
Sterility Testing
Each batch is screened for bacterial and fungal contamination before distribution.
Endotoxin Testing
Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) testing is used to evaluate bacterial endotoxin levels as part of the overall quality assessment.
Heavy Metal Screening
ICP-MS analysis screens for heavy metals, including lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury, against established internal specifications.
Net Content Verification
Every vial is checked to verify that the fill weight corresponds with the labeled quantity.
Fentanyl Screening
Each production batch undergoes LC-MS/MS screening to confirm the absence of fentanyl contamination.
Batch-Specific Certificate of Analysis
Every GHK-Cu batch includes a Certificate of Analysis documenting the analytical testing completed for that specific production lot.
The COA typically includes:
- Batch number
- Purity results
- Identity confirmation
- Sterility status
- Endotoxin testing
- Heavy metal analysis
- Net content verification
- Fentanyl screening
Researchers can access the corresponding COA through the product QR code or the Solas Science COA portal, providing transparency and batch-level verification.
Lyophilized Powder Format
GHK-Cu is supplied as a freeze-dried (lyophilized) powder to facilitate laboratory storage and handling. Lyophilization is a widely used preparation method for peptide materials and supports consistent laboratory workflows.
