Copper Peptide Liquid vs Powder: Concentration and Effectiveness
คำถาม
What is the difference in active concentration when using the 1000ppm Copper Peptide solution at 3% versus the pure Copper Peptide powder at 1% in a formula, and how does this affect their comparative effectiveness?
คำตอบ
Understanding Copper Peptide Concentrations
You've correctly observed the difference in concentration between the two types of Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu) available.
- The Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu, Copper Tripeptide-1) (1000ppm Solution) is a solution containing 1000 ppm, which is equivalent to 0.1% of active GHK-Cu.
When you use this solution at the maximum recommended rate of 3% in your formula, the final concentration of active GHK-Cu in your product is indeed 3% of 0.1%, which equals 0.003%.
The Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu Copper Tripeptide-1, 1:1) Powder has a purity of over 98%, meaning it is almost pure GHK-Cu.
- When you use this powder at the maximum recommended rate of 1% in your formula, the final concentration of active GHK-Cu in your product is approximately 1%.
Therefore, using the pure powder at 1% results in a significantly higher concentration of active GHK-Cu (1%) compared to using the 1000ppm solution at 3% (0.003%).
Effectiveness
Yes, based on the concentration of the active ingredient, using the Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu Copper Tripeptide-1, 1:1) Powder at 1% will be significantly more effective than using the Copper Peptide (GHK-Cu, Copper Tripeptide-1) (1000ppm Solution) at 3%, because you are delivering a much higher amount of the active GHK-Cu peptide to the skin.
