Overview
GHK-CU is presented here as a laboratory reference entry. The Research Profile summarizes literature-based biological context, while this Overview documents the identity record, specification set, preparation format, and quality-reference information available on the page.
The identity block lists CAS number 89030-95-5, molecular formula C₁₄H₂₄CuN₆O₄, and molecular weight 403.9 Da. The material record is paired with ≥99% purity information and a lyophilized presentation for reference review.
Available specification labels include 50mg and 100mg. The active selection is 50mg; changing the selector updates the visible specification label and COA lot references while preserving the same research-reference context.
For the active selection, the page currently shows 3 active COA lot references. COA links, when present, are retained for batch-level purity, identity, and quantity review, while packaging and storage details remain separated in Structure & Identity.
