AHK-Cu Topical (200mg)

AHK-Cu Topical (200mg) is a lyophilized research peptide synthesized, purified, and lyophilized in the USA. Each production batch is purified by repeated rounds of reverse-phase HPLC and identity-confirmed by mass spectrometry.

AHK-Cu Topical (200mg) is a cosmetic-research peptide evaluated in formulations for its signaling effects on skin-related cell models.

Studies of AHK-Cu Topical (200mg) typically focus on collagen-related or matrix-associated endpoints in dermal cell cultures.

Researchers using AHK-Cu Topical (200mg) validate peptide stability in topical vehicle systems before experimental application.

Each vial contains lyophilized peptide at the labeled quantity, and wholesale orders are packed in boxes of ten vials at a single per-vial price.

Quality assurance: every batch is purified by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and identity-confirmed by mass spectrometry, with purity above 99%. Lot-specific certificates of analysis are available on request. Store lyophilized vials at -20°C, protected from light and moisture; reconstitute with bacteriostatic water immediately before use and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. For in-vitro laboratory research use only —not for human or veterinary use.

Research & Literature

The following peer-reviewed studies and reference documents are commonly consulted by researchers working with AHK-Cu Topical (200mg). Summaries are provided for orientation only and reflect the cited sources.

The effect of tripeptide-copper complex on human hair growth in vitro^[1] —This study examined the effect of the tripeptide-copper complex (the AHK-Cu peptide) on human hair growth in vitro. The authors evaluated hair follicle elongation and dermal papilla cell proliferation in culture. The results suggested that AHK-Cu can stimulate hair growth-related cellular activity, supporting its topical use for hair applications. (Archives of Pharmacal Research 2007)

Chemical agents and peptides affect hair growth^[2] —This study reported that chemical agents and peptides can affect hair growth, examining the effects of a copper-binding peptide on follicular development. The authors observed follicular enlargement in an animal model, an effect resembling that of minoxidil. The findings suggested that copper peptides may promote hair follicle activity. (Journal of Investigative Dermatology 1993)

The human tri-peptide GHK and tissue remodeling^[3] —This review discussed copper-peptide complexes, including AHK-Cu and GHK-Cu, and their roles in tissue remodeling, wound healing, and hair growth. The author summarized the biological activities attributed to these copper tripeptides across experimental systems. The review indicated that copper peptides act on multiple regenerative pathways relevant to skin and hair. (Journal of Biomaterials Science, Polymer Edition 2008)
