GHK-Cu reference standard vial
Copper-compound reference standard

GHK-Cu

Research background

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding compound complex used as a reference standard in matrix-remodelling and copper-transport research models. In vitro it is characterised for its high affinity for copper(II) and its interaction with extracellular-matrix signalling pathways. It is provided as an analytical reference material only.
