GHK-Cu UK — buying guide
What to check before you buy GHK-Cu in the UK: the copper-binding tripeptide studied in extracellular-matrix research, verified per batch.

What is GHK-Cu?
GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the naturally occurring tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK), a sequence found in human plasma that binds copper with high affinity. It carries CAS number 89030-95-5 and a molecular weight of 402.93, and is a distinctive blue solid in its complexed form.
In the research literature GHK-Cu is studied within collagen, extracellular-matrix and tissue-remodelling research, where investigators examine how the copper-peptide complex interacts with matrix proteins and fibroblast activity in vitro. Sova supplies it strictly as a characterised reference material — not for human or veterinary use, and with no claim of any effect in people.
Before you buy
How to verify GHK-Cu before you buy
GHK-Cu is a copper complex, so the check that matters is that both the peptide identity and the copper complexation are confirmed against the batch, not just the peptide alone.
Every Sova GHK-Cu vial ships with a batch-linked Certificate of Analysis. Before you buy, confirm the CoA references the batch on the vial, that identity is confirmed by ESI mass spectrometry against the expected 402.93 Da, and that purity is measured by reverse-phase HPLC. Enter the batch at /verify to pull the certificate.
