GHK Basic (Tripeptide-1) 200mg

GHK Basic 200mg is copper-free tripeptide powder for formulation and skin model research, packed by Biotech Peptides. You pay $165 and shipping costs nothing, whether the order goes across the US or overseas. Like the rest of our catalog, it’s synthesized and lyophilized in the USA.

What is GHK Basic?

GHK is the tripeptide glycine-histidine-lysine with no copper attached. Loren Pickart first found it in human plasma in 1973, and it has a strong pull for copper(II): in the body most of it ends up as GHK-Cu.

In cosmetic formulas it’s listed as tripeptide-1. Labs buy the copper-free form when they want to add copper themselves, use a different metal or study the peptide on its own.

GHK Basic research so far

Pickart’s early work showed that GHK from plasma made old liver cells behave more like young ones in culture, and that the effect depended on copper. Later work mostly used the copper complex.

Gene expression studies, including work by Pickart and colleagues using the Broad Institute’s Connectivity Map, reported that GHK shifts the activity of thousands of genes, many tied to tissue repair.

GHK Basic mechanism of action

On its own, GHK grabs copper from its surroundings, including from albumin in serum or culture media. That’s why copper-free GHK often behaves like GHK-Cu once it’s in a copper-containing environment.

Comparing GHK with GHK-Cu is a simple way to see which effects need the copper. The copper complex is linked to collagen and glycosaminoglycan production in skin and wound models.

Working with GHK Basic 200mg

Scoop or weigh the powder quickly and reseal the pouch or jar. Humidity is the main enemy of a dry peptide, more than heat.

Add it to the water phase once the batch has cooled to around 40°C or lower. That’s standard practice for heat-sensitive actives.

Store the sealed powder at -20°C or at least in the fridge, away from light.

Study designs that use GHK Basic 200mg

Most published work on peptides like this runs in two stages: cell assays that measure one output, then a cream or serum test on skin explants or volunteers measured by imaging.

Because formulation levels are small, 200mg covers many test batches. Split it into a few sealed portions on day one and only open one at a time.
