Copper gluconate or copper chloride dissociates, and the resulting copper is taken up by whatever ligands are present — albumin in serum, histidine, buffer components, the medium itself. The salt is a copper source, not a copper carrier.
That is exactly why a copper salt makes such a good control. Matched for copper concentration, it separates "this effect is copper" from "this effect is the complex".
GHK-Cu arrives with the metal already coordinated by the peptide through the histidine imidazole, the N-terminal amine and a backbone nitrogen. The copper is held rather than released.
Whether that changes where the copper goes, or whether the complex is doing something the metal alone does not, is the question the literature is about. It is not settled by the chemistry alone.
Buying a copper salt instead of a copper peptide is not buying the same thing more cheaply. It is buying a different material that happens to contain the same element, and no part of the GHK-Cu literature transfers to it.
GHK-Cu is supplied here as the complex, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry and purity by HPLC for the batch, for laboratory research use only.
