Peptide Storage Guide

Proper storage is critical for maintaining the stability and efficacy of research peptides.

Lyophilized (Powder) Storage

• Temperature: Store at -20°C (freezer)
• Shelf Life: Up to 24 months when properly stored
• Protection: Keep away from light and moisture

Reconstituted Peptide Storage

• Temperature: Store at +4°C (refrigerator)
• Shelf Life: 2-4 weeks depending on the peptide
• Solvent: Use bacteriostatic water to prevent bacterial growth

Best Practices

1. Always use sterile technique when handling peptides
2. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
3. Store in original vials when possible
4. Keep detailed records of reconstitution dates

Conclusion

Following proper storage protocols ensures your research peptides maintain their integrity and deliver reliable results.
