Optimal Handling & Storage Protocols
Maintaining the chemical integrity and biological activity of peptides is paramount for research reliability. Adherence to proper handling and storage procedures is essential:
- Lyophilized Peptides: Store at -20°C or below in a tightly sealed container, protected from light and moisture.
- Reconstituted Peptides: Store at 4°C for short-term use (typically 2–3 weeks). For longer storage, aliquot into single-use portions and freeze at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution Solvent: Use appropriate, sterile, and high-purity solvents such as deionized water, bacteriostatic water, or specific buffer solutions as dictated by experimental requirements.
- Safety Precautions: Always use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including laboratory coats, safety glasses, and gloves, when handling peptides and their solutions.
