HCG 5000 IU

(Research Use Only) HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) 5000 IU is a glycoprotein hormone preparation supplied as a sterile, lyophilized powder for use as a reference material in laboratory, in‑vitro, and analytical studies conducted by qualified professionals in appropriately equipped research facilities. This product is not a drug and is not intended for human or veterinary use, clinical applications, fertility treatment, or any form of in‑vivo administration.

Structural Information HCG is a heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone consisting of non‑covalently associated α and β subunits, structurally related to luteinizing hormone (LH), and is commonly used in research to model gonadotropin signaling pathways and receptor–ligand interactions under controlled experimental conditions.

• Compound type: Human glycoprotein hormone (chorionic gonadotropin).​

• Approximate molecular weight: On the order of 36–40 kDa for the intact heterodimer, depending on glycosylation.​

• Other designations: Chorionic gonadotropin human, HCG, choriogonadotropin.

Intended Use and Limitations This product is supplied for Research Use Only (RUO) and is not intended for human or animal consumption. It must not be used for diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease and must not be compounded, injected, ingested, inhaled, implanted, absorbed, or otherwise administered to humans or animals, including in any fertility, endocrine, bodybuilding, weight‑management, or hormone‑replacement applications. Any scientific literature or background information associated with HCG is provided solely to describe its chemical and research characteristics and should not be interpreted as guidance for clinical or therapeutic use.

Handling, Storage, and Quality HCG 5000 IU should be handled using standard laboratory practices appropriate for sterile protein and hormone reference materials, including aseptic technique where required, suitable PPE, and measures to avoid contamination or aerosolization. Unopened lyophilized vials should be stored according to internal laboratory protocols, typically refrigerated or frozen and protected from light and moisture; reconstitution, aliquoting, storage conditions, and holding times for solutions should be defined and validated by the end user’s laboratory. Each lot may be accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing identity, potency (IU), purity, and analytical data (for example, chromatographic or bioassay information), enabling researchers to document material quality and suitability for their specific experimental applications.

Regulatory and Compliance Notice All products of this type are intended exclusively for research, laboratory, or analytical purposes and are not for human consumption or use in foods, drugs, cosmetics, medical devices, or household chemicals. This material must not be used to create, manufacture, or compound finished dosage forms, and it is not supplied as a prescription medication, active pharmaceutical ingredient, or fertility treatment product.
