Storage Guidelines
Temperature
-
Lyophilized Peptides
- Long‑term storage: Store at −4 °F or colder.
- Short‑term storage: Store at 39 °F (refrigerator) for up to a few weeks.
Humidity
- Keep peptides in a dry environment.
- Ensure vials are tightly sealed to prevent moisture uptake.
Light
- Protect from bright and UV light.
- Store in opaque containers or wrap vials in aluminum foil.
Air Exposure
- Minimize air contact
Handling
- Handle only as needed before reconstitution to avoid contamination.
Avoid
- Repeated freeze‑thaw cycles.
- Exposure to pH > 8.
- Leaving peptides at room temperature for extended periods.
Shelf Life:
- Peptides should remain stable for a shelf life of two years if stored properly.
