HCG
Literature-based research context for laboratory reference only.
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone structurally homologous to LH. It activates LH/hCG receptors to stimulate gonadal steroidogenesis. Research examines its applications in studying HPG axis regulation and Leydig cell biology.

Overview
HCG 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 9002-61-3, molecular formula C₁₁₀₅H₁₇₇₀N₃₂₆O₃₃₆S₂₆, and molecular weight ~26,000 Da. The material record is paired with ≥99% purity information and a lyophilized presentation for reference review.
Available specification labels include 5000iu and 10000iu. The active selection is 5000iu; 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 1 active COA lot reference. COA links, when present, are retained for batch-level purity, identity, and quantity review, while packaging and storage details remain separated in Structure & Identity.
