KLOW Peptide Blend Protocol — GHK-Cu + BPC-157 + TB-500 + KPV

KLOW is a fixed 4-peptide research blend: GHK-Cu 50mg + BPC-157 10mg + TB-500 10mg + KPV 10mg (80mg vial). Reconstitution, per-component dosing breakdown, administration, and cited evidence. Research Use Only.

Context first

Study findings do not automatically establish clinical benefit, safety, dosing, or suitability for an individual.

KLOW Blend Protocol

KLOW is a fixed four-peptide research blend — GHK-Cu 50 mg + BPC-157 10 mg + TB-500 10 mg + KPV 10 mg in a single 80 mg vial — combining copper-mediated regeneration, tissue repair, cell-migration, and anti-inflammatory pathways studied individually across its four components.

1What's in the vial

KLOW is a fixed blend — the four peptides are lyophilized together in one vial, so you cannot dose them separately. The mass ratio is always 50 : 10 : 10 : 10 (GHK-Cu is 62.5% of the total).

GHK-Cu

50 mg

62.5%

Copper-mediated regeneration, skin remodeling

BPC-157

10 mg

12.5%

Tissue repair, gut & tendon healing

TB-500

Cell migration, soft-tissue repair

KPV

Anti-inflammatory (α-MSH fragment)

Total: 80 mg per vial

2Reconstitute & dose

Because the ratio is fixed, every draw delivers all four peptides proportionally — you dose the blend, not one peptide. The calculator below shows exactly how many mg of each peptide any draw delivers. Anchor your draw to whichever component you're studying (most researchers anchor to GHK-Cu, the 62.5% majority, or to the BPC-157 / TB-500 tissue-repair range).

A few common reconstitution points for the 80 mg vial (BAC water = bacteriostatic water):

1 mL

80 mg/mL

GHK-Cu 2.5 mg · BPC/TB/KPV 500 mcg each

2 mL

40 mg/mL

GHK-Cu 1.25 mg · BPC/TB/KPV 250 mcg each

4 mL

20 mg/mL

GHK-Cu 625 mcg · BPC/TB/KPV 125 mcg each

These are arithmetic examples of what a draw delivers at a given reconstitution — not dose recommendations. Use the calculator to model your own vial and draw.

3Administration & storage

Route. In research practice KLOW is administered subcutaneously with a U-100 insulin syringe. (GHK-Cu on its own is also studied topically, but the blend is reconstituted and injected.)

Storage. Store the lyophilized vial cold and protected from light; once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate (2–8 °C) and use within the BAC water's preservative window. GHK-Cu is copper-blue in solution — a faint blue tint after reconstitution is expected.

4What each peptide is studied for

GHK-Cu 50 mg

Copper-binding tripeptide; the best-characterized component. Studied for skin remodeling, wound signaling, and antioxidant gene expression.

BPC-157 10 mg

Gastric pentadecapeptide studied in preclinical models for tissue, tendon, and gut-barrier repair.

TB-500 10 mg

Thymosin β4 fragment studied for actin regulation, cell migration, and soft-tissue repair.

KPV 10 mg

C-terminal α-MSH tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val) studied for anti-inflammatory signaling.

5Evidence

No study evaluates the four-peptide blend together; the evidence base is the individual components' preclinical literature:

Pickart 2015 — GHK-Cu review (PMID 26236730)

He 2022 — BPC-157 rat/dog PK (PMID 36568636)

Sikiric 2018 — BPC-157 preclinical review (PMID 29141577)

Crockford 2010 — TB-500 / Tβ4 preclinical review (PMID 20594025)
