What is HGH?
HGH (Recombinant Human Growth Hormone (191 aa, somatropin)) is a 191-amino acid recombinant protein. Recombinant human growth hormone acting directly at the GH receptor (GHR) — bypasses the pituitary entirely with non-pulsatile pharmacokinetics. Stimulates hepatic IGF-1 production, anabolic signalling in muscle via IGF-1R, adipose lipolysis, and GH-induced insulin resistance at supraphysiological doses.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute this peptide?
Add 1–2mL bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized HGH vial, directing water down the inner wall slowly. Gently swirl — never shake or vortex as this denatures the 191aa protein. Solution should be clear with no visible particles. Discard if cloudy.
How should this peptide be stored?
Store lyophilized at −20°C or −4°C (freezer). Reconstituted HGH is stable at 2–8°C for up to 72 hours, or up to 3 weeks if stored carefully. HGH is protein-sensitive — avoid shaking, repeated freeze-thaw, heat, and UV light exposure.
What purity is this QSC compound and how is it verified?
QSC HGH (recombinant somatropin, 191aa) is ≥99% pure by HPLC. Each batch includes a COA with HPLC chromatogram and MS molecular weight confirmation. COA is published on the product page and verifiable via Janoshik.
