How is the purity of AHK-Cu verified?+
Every lot ships with its own per-batch Certificate of Analysis: identity confirmed by mass spectrometry, ≥99% purity by HPLC, and a unique lot number you can verify against the vial you receive.
How should AHK-Cu be stored?+
Store lyophilized vials cool and away from light. After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate and handle under appropriate laboratory conditions.
Research Use Only
This product is sold strictly for laboratory and research use only. Not for human or veterinary use, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use, and not for consumption. Purchasers must be 21+ and qualified to handle research materials.
How It's Made
From synthesis to your bench
Every Renova lot follows the same path — synthesized in the USA, independently verified, and dispatched same-day with its COA.
Step 1Synthesized & sealed
Solid-phase synthesis in U.S. cGMP facilities, then lyophilized and sealed under controlled cleanroom conditions — built for ≥99% purity and shelf stability.
Step 2Independently verified
Every lot is HPLC- and mass-spec–tested by an accredited U.S. lab, and its Certificate of Analysis is published and searchable by batch number.
Step 3Same-day dispatch
Orders placed before the daily cutoff ship the same day — discreet, tracked, temperature-aware packaging, shipped across the USA.
