Peptide Storage Guidelines

Lyophilized (Powder) Form

Optimal Conditions

• Temperature: -20°C (freezer) for long-term storage
• Acceptable: 2-8°C (refrigerator) for short-term (weeks)
• Light: Protect from direct light exposure
• Humidity: Keep sealed; avoid moisture exposure

Shelf Life

Properly stored lyophilized peptides can maintain stability for 24+ months at -20°C.

Reconstituted Form

Optimal Conditions

• Temperature: 2-8°C (refrigerator)
• NEVER freeze reconstituted peptides
• Light: Store in dark or amber vials

Stability Duration

| Peptide | Reconstituted Stability | |---------|------------------------| | BPC-157 | Up to 30 days | | TB-500 | Up to 21 days | | GHK-Cu | Up to 14 days | | CJC-1295 | Up to 21 days |

Handling Best Practices

1. Minimize temperature fluctuations
2. Use sterile technique when accessing vials
3. Clean stoppers with alcohol before each use
4. Avoid introducing contaminants
5. Label vials with reconstitution date
