Copper peptides are naturally occurring, small protein fragments that have a high affinity to copper ions. Copper peptide powder is an important enzyme in collagen and elastin production and depends upon copper's action. Tyrosinase and cytochrome oxidase require copper as well.
Function:
1) Stimulate collagen and elastin formation, firming the skin and reducing fine lines.
2) Restore skin repair capacity, increase skin cell adhesion between quality products, and reduce skin damage.
3) Polyamines stimulated glucose formation, increased skin thickness, and reduced loose skin and tight skin.
4) Promote angiogenesis, and increase skin oxygen supply.
5) Auxiliary antioxidant enzymes SOD, has a strong anti-free radical and beneficial functions.
Application:
1) In the form of skin care products: Copper peptide has multiple functions, both as a messenger and as a carrier. Secondly, it has the advantages of being mild, non-irritating, and safe, so its application value in external skin care products is high.
2) In the form of preparations or dietary supplements Copper peptide microspheres coated with hydroxypropyl cellulose are used as products for localized release of the colon. The release of Copper peptide is affected by the degree of cross-linking and drug loading. This microsphere releases 50-80% of the drug within 4 hours. These studies suggest that GHK-Cu can be used as a dietary supplement.
