Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG)

What is it?

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is a naturally occurring glycoprotein hormone widely studied in laboratory settings for its interaction with luteinizing hormone (LH) receptors and its role in reproductive endocrinology. It is used in controlled experimental models to investigate gonadal function, steroid hormone production, cellular signaling pathways, and endocrine regulation mechanisms. HCG is supplied as a lyophilized powder suitable for research involving hormone-receptor interactions, reproductive biology, and physiological signaling processes. Each batch is verified for identity and purity using validated analytical testing methods. Supplied as: Lyophilized powder Purity: 98–99%+ (HPLC verified where applicable) Storage: Store desiccated at -20°C for long-term. Short-term room temperature exposure (around 1 month) during shipping/handling is generally acceptable if kept sealed, dry, and protected from heat/light. Designation: FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for human or animal consumption.
