Peptide storage and reconstitution: best practices
Best practices for storing and reconstituting lyophilized peptides: temperature, solvents (bacteriostatic water) and handling to preserve product integrity.
Storing the lyophilized vial
The sealed lyophilized vial is best kept cold and protected from light. Always check the specific conditions for each reference.
Reconstitution
Reconstitution is done with an appropriate solvent (for example, bacteriostatic water) in the indicated amount. It is added slowly down the vial wall, without vigorous shaking.
Handling and traceability
Work in clean conditions, label each vial with its batch and keep the corresponding CoA. These practices preserve product integrity and traceability.
Frequently asked questions
