Handling guidance

Storage information

Storage conditions vary by compound and formulation. Always refer to compound-specific stability data and the product packaging.

Unreconstituted / lyophilised peptides

Store at −20°C or below for long-term storage.
Keep sealed and protected from moisture, heat and direct light.
Allow to reach room temperature before opening after removal from cold storage.
Avoid unnecessary temperature fluctuations.
Some products may be suitable for short-term refrigeration at 2–8°C depending on the compound.

Reconstituted peptides

Store refrigerated at 2–8°C where appropriate for the specific peptide and research protocol.
Keep protected from direct light and minimise unnecessary agitation.
Avoid repeated temperature changes.
For frozen storage protocols, use suitable aliquots to reduce repeat freeze-thaw cycles.
Use compound-specific stability data rather than a universal expiry period.
