Peptide Storage Guidelines

General Rules for All Peptides

• Protect from light: Store in opaque containers or dark environments.
• Minimize moisture: Use airtight containers with desiccant when needed.
• Maintain stable temperature: Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
• Handle carefully with sterile equipment to prevent contamination.

Lyophilized Peptides (Freeze-Dried Powder)

Unopened:

• Long-term: -20°C (-4°F); Short-term: 2–8°C (36–46°F) up to 6 months
• Store sealed with desiccant and protected from light

Reconstituted:

• Refrigerate at 2–8°C (36–46°F), use within 2–4 weeks
• For longer storage, aliquot and freeze at -20°C, thaw only what you need
• Avoid shaking or vigorous mixing

Liquid Peptides (Non-Lyophilized)

• Refrigerate at 2–8°C unless otherwise specified
• Use within 1–6 months; do not freeze unless indicated
• Keep in sealed, sterile, opaque container

Peptide Blends

• Store unopened: 2–8°C short-term; -20°C long-term
• Reconstituted: 2–8°C for 2–4 weeks; freeze aliquots for longer storage
• Stability may vary; follow product-specific instructions

Peptide Tablets

• Room temperature (15–25°C / 59–77°F) in cool, dry place
• Keep sealed and away from light
• Follow expiration dates; do not refrigerate or freeze unless instructed

Transport Tips: Use insulated packaging with ice packs for lyophilized or liquid peptides.

Legal & Regulatory Compliance
