Description
GHK-Cu KPV blend puts 50mg/20mg of GHK-Cu and KPV into one sealed vial, so you reconstitute once instead of two times. It’s for laboratory research only.
Inside the GHK-Cu KPV blend
GHK-Cu: GHK-Cu is the tripeptide glycyl-histidyl-lysine bound to a copper ion. GHK occurs naturally in human plasma, saliva and urine, and its levels fall with age.
KPV: KPV is the tripeptide lysine-proline-valine, the C-terminal end of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone. It keeps alpha-MSH’s anti-inflammatory activity without the pigment effects.
The ratio is fixed at 50mg/20mg, so every draw from the vial has the same proportions. That’s the main reason labs buy a blend: one reconstitution, one label, no drift between separate vials.
Mechanisms behind the GHK-Cu KPV blend
GHK binds copper tightly and can deliver it to cells. Copper is a cofactor for lysyl oxidase, the enzyme that cross-links collagen and elastin, and for antioxidant enzymes.
Alpha-MSH calms inflammation through melanocortin receptors. KPV is its last three amino acids and keeps much of that anti-inflammatory activity.

Published GHK-Cu and KPV studies
Loren Pickart, who first isolated GHK in 1973, has published reviews of its effects on collagen synthesis, wound contraction and gene expression in cell and animal studies.
Maquart and colleagues reported that GHK-Cu increased collagen in rat wound chambers.
Dalmasso and colleagues reported in Gastroenterology (2008) that KPV reduced inflammation in mouse colitis models and was taken up through PepT1.
Laroui and colleagues later packaged KPV in nanoparticles and saw similar effects in mice.

Reconstituting GHK-Cu KPV blend
Here’s the math for 70mg of peptide:
- 3mL of diluent gives 23.33mg/mL
- 5mL of diluent gives 14mg/mL
Go with whichever number is easiest to work with in your protocol, and label the vial with the concentration and the date you mixed it.
Most labs use sterile bacteriostatic water or our research diluent solution. Let the vial reach room temperature, run the liquid slowly down the inside of the glass, then roll it gently until the powder dissolves. Don’t shake it. Shaking can shear peptide chains.
Storing GHK-Cu KPV blend
Store sealed vials in the fridge (2 to 8°C) or freezer (-20°C), away from light. Mixed solution goes back in the fridge and should be used within about 28 days.
GHK-Cu and KPV purity and Janoshik testing
Scroll through the GHK-Cu KPV blend photos and you’ll find one Janoshik Analytical test report. Each one lists the compound found, the measured amount and the HPLC purity, plus the batch number and the date the lab ran it.
GHK-Cu KPV blend is sold at a minimum of 99% purity by HPLC. The reports below show the actual figure for each batch tested.
Every Janoshik report has a unique key printed at the bottom. Enter it at janoshik.com/verify and you’ll see the same report straight from the lab, which is the easiest way to know a COA hasn’t been edited. Match the batch on the report with the batch on your label.
GHK-Cu KPV blend bulk pricing
GHK-Cu KPV blend comes in more than one quantity. Pick the option from the dropdown above the cart button:
- Single vial: $85.00
- 5 pack: 5 vials for $403.75 instead of $425.00, about $80.75 a vial
- 10 pack: 10 vials for $765.00 instead of $850.00, about $76.50 a vial
Every vial in a pack is the same product and batch type as the single vial. The saving is the only difference, so buy the pack if your study will use them before they expire.
