How to Store Peptides: A Researcher's Guide to Preserving Stability
Proper peptide storage isn't optional β even 24 hours at the wrong temperature can degrade a research-grade compound enough to invalidate downstream assays. This guide walks through the four variables that matter mostβ¦
- Temperature: lyophilized vs reconstituted
- Light exposure and amber vials
- Reconstitution solvents (BAC water vs sterile saline)
- Freeze-thaw cycles and aliquoting strategy
