How are you guys dosing KLOW

He just reacted to a question I posed so he's definitely lurking and trawling through reddit XD

But yeah even lower than 250mcg would be better. 50-150mcg seems like it would be great

I know it is, I have been using 0.050 for 3 years (only on tanning/sun days)

Nice that’s good to hear

There is no way bac water would strip the copper ion from the tripeptide. If the copper ion were separated it would no longer be blue but a greenish yellow. To prove this, this is how you actually strip the copper from the GHK’s complex. Add 2ml of a 90:10 mixture of water and raw Vitamin C powder to a vial of GHK, and see the color difference.

If you use phosphate buffered saline it should only be in single use vials and never be reused. If you care about PH then use bacteriostatic saline. Even wiping the top with alcohol and a sterile needle is not be enough to stop bacteria from entering the vial (Read study in image). PBS doesn't kill bacteria, you are risking serious infection or an abscess. (In second photo the shaded/gray lines are bacteria in pbs vials without special coating, which these vials are. The bacteria lives)

Tbh both answers are from my wife 🤣 She went to UPenn for chemistry and I asked her and had her look into it. She is asleep so I will answer tomorrow.

I use BAC saline for everything now

To answer the first part, yes: A truly “free” copper would look different than the royal blue of normal GHK-CU. It would look like a glacier ice Gatorade kind of pale light blue. That would require such uncommon circumstances that it is not even worth entertaining which is why I used an example of reduction to strip/separate the copper from the complex instead of truly “freeing” it. To free the bond is funny to think of given that the bond of copper in the GHK complex is one quadrillion times stronger than copper can bind to water. The Vitamin C greenish example creates a shade of green you can see due to common issues (reduction, low-level oxidation, or corrosion). It being a greenish color can happen from being reconstituted for too long (low-level oxidation), getting a fake vial of bac water and getting bacteria/organic compounds in the vial whose metabolites cause reduction (contamination), or using cheap Amazon needles that leach metal and go through an ion exchange (corrosion, but more of a greenish turquoise with common metals in cheap needles). To make it “freed” requires things like boiling a reconstituted vial in bac water for hours or dropping the ph rapidly to below 4 with a strong acid. It is not going to happen unless something is already very wrong with the product.

Oh I would not use PBS I was arguing against using it and that everyone who claims it’s better than bac water, conveniently never have a source for that info.

Meant to reply to the Luca post that was near yours, my bad

Hospira!

do you use this for GHK-CU or all your peps that require bac water?

I use it for almost all
