Each vial holds 5000 IU of HCG as a lyophilized protein. The compound is a glycoprotein hormone, CAS 9002-61-3, supplied for in-vitro assay work. It is sold as a single sealed vial, with no diluent or consumables included.
The powder arrives dry and sealed, packed in an insulated mailer with desiccant. The outer parcel measures 8×8×6 cm and is tendered to the courier at 0.05 kg, a packed weight rather than the net content. The net content is the 5000 IU stated on the label. This item is for research use only.
