Customer reviews
No verified buyer has rated this product yet — so rather than show you an empty box, here is exactly how reviews work here, and why the ones that do appear are worth something.
Delivered orders only
A review can only be written from the link in a delivery email, against an order the carrier actually delivered. There is no public review form.
One review per order
Enforced in the database, not by trust. Nobody can pad the score, including us.
Read by a person before it appears
Every review is held until someone approves it, and reviews here rate the order — shipping, packaging, paperwork, support — not the compound. We sell research chemicals, so we can't publish claims about use in humans.
Ordered from us already? Your review link is in the email we sent when your parcel was delivered. Haven’t ordered yet? The third-party certificate of analysis for this compound is the evidence to read in the meantime.
Compound Information
Updated 2026-06-08Technical specifications
A copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-histidyl-lysine) that forms a stable 1:1 complex with copper(II). Naturally present in human plasma; concentration declines with age. Studied in dermal-biology and extracellular-matrix research for copper-dependent enzymatic pathways.
