AHK-Cu Australia – Copper Tripeptide Research Peptide | AusBioLabs
Buy AHK-Cu in Australia – AHK-Cu is a copper tripeptide, also known as Copper Tripeptide-3. In fact, it links three amino acids, alanine, histidine, and lysine, with a copper ion. Because of this copper bond, researchers study it in laboratory work on skin and hair biology.
In the lab, scientists use AHK-Cu only for in vitro studies. For example, they examine collagen synthesis, fibroblast activity, and hair follicle cells. Overall, AusBioLabs supplies premium research grade AHK-Cu strictly for qualified laboratory work.
Key Highlights
- Purity: >99% (Third party HPLC & MS Tested)
- Form: Lyophilised Powder
- Intended Use: Strictly for in vitro laboratory research only. Not for human consumption.
- Shipping: Fast Sydney/Melbourne Dispatch via Australia Post Express
What Is AHK-Cu?
AHK-Cu is a tripeptide, which means it has just three amino acids. First, the peptide binds a single copper ion at the lysine site. Then, it delivers that copper into cell models. As a result, labs use it to study copper driven repair pathways.
Researchers value AHK-Cu because copper plays a key role in skin and hair biology. Moreover, in studies it appears to support collagen and follicle activity. In short, this makes it a popular tool in dermal research.
Research Applications (In Vitro / Laboratory Only)
- Collagen Synthesis: First, researchers study how AHK-Cu affects collagen production in dermal fibroblasts.
- Hair Follicle Research: In addition, scientists examine its effect on hair follicle cells in vitro.
- Skin Regeneration Models: Also, labs explore its role in wound and repair cell models.
- Copper Delivery: Moreover, teams use it to probe how peptides carry copper into cells.
- Cosmetic Ingredient Research: Finally, AHK-Cu serves as a benchmark copper peptide in skincare studies.
Storage & Handling
- To begin, store the powder in a cool, dry place below 25°C, and keep it away from light.
- In addition, for longer storage, hold it at -20 °C.
- Next, reconstitute with sterile or bacteriostatic water under sterile lab conditions.
- Finally, avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles.
