hCG 5,000 IU is supplied as a 5,000 IU vial of lyophilized powder, held in US stock and priced at $65 per vial. Bundle pricing lowers the per vial figure automatically as quantity rises: $61 each at two vials, $58 at three, $55 at five. No code and no quote request, and an order placed before 4PM ET goes out the same day, weekends included.
What researchers look for in an hCG supplier
hCG is bought by the international unit rather than the milligram, so one supplier’s vial is less interchangeable with another’s than the label suggests. Potency is set by bioactivity, and a glycoprotein that spent three weeks in a warm consolidation warehouse does not announce it. Four things decide whether a supplier earns a standing order.
Stock that is real and held in the United States. Every listing reports live inventory from the same system the cart reads, and hCG 5,000 IU shows 7 vials. Material sits on a domestic shelf, so an order does not wait on a customs queue or an overseas consolidation run.
Pricing printed on the page. The single vial price is $65 and the bundle tiers are published below. No quote request, no minimum order, no volume account to apply for. The figure does not change between the listing, the cart and the receipt.
Dispatch measured in hours, not days. Orders placed before 4PM ET are dispatched the same day, seven days a week, weekends and holidays included. Tracking is emailed the day the parcel leaves. A Saturday order does not sit until Monday morning, which is where most lost days come from.
A person who answers. Support replies within one business day and a person reads it. If a vial arrives with a cracked stopper, a broken seal or no visible cake in the bottom, send a photograph and it is replaced or refunded. No ticket queue and no claims portal to work through first.

What hCG is, in research terms
hCG is a heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone. Two subunits associate non-covalently: an alpha subunit of 92 amino acids shared with LH, FSH and TSH, and a beta subunit of 145 amino acids unique to hCG that carries the receptor specificity. The empirical formula is listed as C1105H1770N318O336S26, and the intact glycosylated heterodimer has a mass of approximately 36,700 Da. The CAS number is 9002-61-3. It ships as lyophilized powder at 5,000 IU per vial under SKU CRP-HCG-5000, potency expressed in international units.
The published preclinical literature describes hCG as an agonist at LHCGR, the luteinizing hormone and chorionic gonadotropin receptor. The beta subunit C-terminal peptide is densely O-glycosylated, a feature associated with a far longer circulating half-life than pituitary LH. For a laboratory that difference is the point. LH clears fast and arrives in pulses, so sustained receptor occupancy is hard to hold steady in a model system. hCG holds the same receptor longer, separating continuous LHCGR signaling from pulsatile signaling on one readout.
Assay work concentrates in four systems. HEK293 and CHO lines transfected with recombinant LHCGR carry the binding and cAMP accumulation studies. MA-10 and mLTC-1 Leydig tumor lines carry the steroidogenic response, read as StAR induction and steroid accumulation in the medium. Primary granulosa and luteal cell culture carries luteinization and progesterone output. Rodent models of gonadal and ovarian function supply matched tissue for histology and gene expression panels. Wider background on research grade material sits in What Are Research Peptides?.

Bundle pricing, printed on the page
| Quantity | Per vial | Order total | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 vial | $65 | $65 | – |
| 2 vials | $61 | $122 | $8 |
| 3 vials | $58 | $174 | $21 |
| 5 vials | $55 | $275 | $50 |
Potency in international units means an hCG project gets planned in units rather than vials, and four model systems each want their own supply: recombinant LHCGR lines, MA-10 and mLTC-1 Leydig cultures, primary granulosa work and matched rodent tissue. Three vials is where a total tops $150 and domestic shipping stops being charged. Volume pricing is 5% for a pair, 10% for three and 15% for five, handled at the cart. One order means one handling batch across every system.
US stock, international shipping and same-day dispatch
The dispatch cutoff is 4PM ET and the queue runs every day of the week, holidays included, so an order that clears the cutoff leaves that day. Tracking is emailed the day the parcel leaves, not the following morning and not when the carrier posts its first scan. Stock is held in the United States, so a domestic order ships from a domestic shelf.
Standard Shipping inside the US is $12 and arrives in 2 to 5 business days, free on orders over $150. Expedited 2-3 Day is $39 and Overnight is $95. Standard International is $40 (10 to 20 business days) and Express International is $100 (5 to 10 business days), with Standard International free on orders of $500 and above. Every rate is flat, so five vials cost the same to ship as one.
Storage and handling
Hold the sealed lyophilized vial at minus 20C, in the dark and dry, in its original stoppered container. Once reconstituted, keep it at 2 to 8C, upright and out of the light, and aliquot a stock before freezing rather than cycling one vial. Bring a cold vial to room temperature before breaking the seal. storage and handling page sets out the catalog rules, and reconstitution calculator does the concentration arithmetic for any diluent volume.
Checkout, payment and support
Checkout takes Visa and Mastercard on the site in one pass. No redirect to a wallet, no cryptocurrency step, no bank transfer instructions emailed after the fact. The order confirms immediately and joins the same day dispatch queue if the clock allows.
A question about a vial, a bundle order or a tracking number that has not moved is answered within one business day. Nothing has to be shipped back before a replacement goes out, and there is no restocking fee on a supplier error.

Frequently asked questions
What is hCG?
hCG is human chorionic gonadotropin, a heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone of the gonadotropin family. An alpha subunit of 92 amino acids, shared with LH, FSH and TSH, pairs non-covalently with a beta subunit of 145 amino acids that is unique to hCG. The intact glycosylated molecule has a mass of approximately 36,700 Da and the CAS number is 9002-61-3. Published preclinical work characterizes it as an agonist at LHCGR, the luteinizing hormone and chorionic gonadotropin receptor, in cell and animal model systems.
Why buy hCG from Core Research Peptides?
Stock is held in the United States and shown live on the product page, currently 7 vials. A single vial is $65 and bundle tiers apply automatically in the cart. The dispatch cutoff is 4PM ET, seven days a week. Card payment is taken on the site in one pass, and support answers within one business day.
What purity is your hCG?
Potency, not a mass percentage, is the specification that matters for a gonadotropin. hCG is standardized by bioactivity, so each vial is filled to 5,000 IU rather than to a milligram weight, and it ships as sealed lyophilized powder under SKU CRP-HCG-5000, held at minus 20C until it leaves. hCG is held to the same standard as the rest of the catalog, and material that does not meet it is not listed.
How fast do you ship hCG, and what does shipping cost?
Same day dispatch applies to every order placed before 4PM ET, seven days a week, and tracking is emailed the day the parcel leaves. Inside the US, Standard Shipping is $12 and arrives in 2 to 5 business days, free on orders over $150, Expedited 2-3 Day is $39 and Overnight is $95. Rates are flat, so shipping does not change with vial count.
Do you ship hCG internationally?
Yes. Standard International is $40 flat and arrives in 10 to 20 business days, free on orders of $500 and above. Express International is $100 flat and arrives in 5 to 10 business days. The buyer is responsible for the import rules of the destination country.
Do you offer bundle pricing on hCG?
Yes. Two vials take 5 percent off the per vial price, three take 10 percent and five take 15 percent, floored to whole dollars. On hCG that is $61 per vial at two, $58 at three and $55 at five, so five vials total $275. Tiers apply in the cart with no code, and a coupon code stacks on top of them.
How should hCG be stored?
Sealed and lyophilized, hCG holds at minus 20C, dry and out of the light, with the crimp seal intact. In solution it is far less durable: 2 to 8C, upright, dark, and aliquoted rather than frozen and thawed as a single vial. Let a cold vial reach room temperature before the stopper is pierced so moisture does not condense onto the cake.
