GEPPPGKPADDAGLV
A three-component blend of a copper-binding tripeptide (GHK-Cu), a Thymosin Beta-4 fragment (TB-500) and a gastric pentadecapeptide (BPC-157). Each component has a distinct structure and target class; no combined descriptor exists.
Lyophilized
20°C, sealed, protected from light/moisture.
Avoid freeze-thaw; protect from light; component stabilities differ.
