Storage & Handling Guide
Proper storage and handling ensures your research peptides maintain optimal stability and integrity for laboratory applications.
Temperature Requirements
Long-Term Storage
-20°C
Lyophilized peptides should be stored at -20°C for maximum stability (up to 2+ years)
Reconstituted
2-8°C
After reconstitution, refrigerate and use within 30 days for optimal results
Avoid
25°C+
Room temperature and direct sunlight will degrade peptides rapidly
Lyophilized Storage
- •Store in original sealed vial until ready for use
- •Keep away from light, heat, and moisture
- •Freezer storage (-20°C) extends shelf life significantly
- •Allow vial to reach room temperature before opening
- •Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
Reconstitution
- •Use bacteriostatic water (BAC) for research applications
- •Add diluent slowly against the vial wall
- •Gently swirl—never shake vigorously
- •Allow peptide to dissolve completely (1-2 minutes)
- •Calculate and record concentration before use
Stability Timeline
- •Lyophilized at -20°C: 2+ years stability
- •Lyophilized at 2-8°C: 6-12 months
- •Reconstituted at 2-8°C: 30 days recommended
- •Reconstituted frozen: Extended stability possible
Laboratory Best Practices
- •Use sterile technique when handling
- •Work in a clean, controlled environment
- •Label all vials with date of reconstitution
- •Document lot numbers for traceability
