HCG

Description

HCG is a heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone composed of an alpha and a beta subunit. It is referenced in published in vitro laboratory research examining luteinizing-hormone / chorionic-gonadotropin (LH/CG) receptor binding assays, gonadotropin receptor signaling, and glycoprotein-hormone structural studies.

Plumeo Research supplies HCG in lyophilized form at high purity, verified by analytical testing, with a Certificate of Analysis available for every batch.

Intended exclusively for in vitro laboratory research by qualified investigators. Not for human, veterinary, or clinical use.
