Peptide Storage and Handling Guidelines

Storage and Stability of Lyophilized Peptides

Proper storage and handling are essential to maintain peptide integrity for laboratory research applications.

Lyophilized (dry) peptides

  • Store at -20°C for long-term stability
  • Short-term storage (up to several weeks): 2–8°C
  • Protect from light and moisture

After reconstitution

  • Use sterile laboratory-grade solvent
  • Store refrigerated (2–8°C)
  • Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles

Repeated temperature fluctuations, contamination, or exposure to light may affect peptide stability and analytical consistency.
