How Much Bac Water for GHK-Cu?
A 50mg GHK-Cu vial reconstituted with 3.0 mL of bacteriostatic water produces a solution concentration of 16.67 mg/mL (16,670 mcg/mL). To draw a typical research dose of 2.0 mg (2,000 mcg), pull 12 units (0.12 mL) on a U-100 syringe. Adding 3.0 mL of diluent helps reduce localized injection sting caused by GHK-Cu's high concentration.
GHK-Cu Reconstitution & Syringe Draw Reference
| Vial Size | Bac Water Added | Concentration | Target Dose | U-100 Syringe Draw |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 mg | 2.0 mL | 25.0 mg/mL | 2.0 mg (2,000 mcg) | 8 Units (0.08 mL) |
| 50 mg | 3.0 mL | 16.67 mg/mL | 2.0 mg (2,000 mcg) | 12 Units (0.12 mL) |
| 50 mg | 5.0 mL | 10.0 mg/mL | 2.0 mg (2,000 mcg) | 20 Units (0.20 mL) |
| 100 mg | 3.0 mL | 33.33 mg/mL | 3.0 mg (3,000 mcg) | 9 Units (0.09 mL) |
| 100 mg | 5.0 mL | 20.0 mg/mL | 3.0 mg (3,000 mcg) | 15 Units (0.15 mL) |
Because GHK-Cu is often dosed in milligrams rather than micrograms, proper diluent volume ensures comfortable administration. To adjust diluent ratios for your research protocol, see the GHK-Cu dosage calculator.
