Peptide Reconstitution Guidelines
Our peptides are delivered as stable, freeze-dried powders. For best results, follow these storage and handling practices:
Storage:
Before reconstitution: Store at -20°C to -80°C.
After reconstitution: Store at 4°C for a few days, or freeze aliquots at -20°C for longer storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitution:
Choose the right solvent: Bacteriostatic water works for most peptides. Use 0.1% acetic acid or dilute HCl sparingly for highly hydrophobic peptides.
Add solvent slowly to the vial, mixing gently by swirling or tilting. Do not shake.
Ensure the solution is clear. Brief sonication can help dissolve stubborn peptides.
Avoid These Mistakes:
Using non-sterile water
Shaking the vial aggressively
Leaving reconstituted peptides at room temperature
Not aliquoting for storage, causing repeated freeze-thaw
Proper reconstitution and storage ensures peptide quality for your research. Follow these best practices for optimal results.
Peptide Reconstitution Guidelines
Our peptides are delivered as stable, freeze-dried powders (lyophilized). For best results, follow these storage and handling practices:
Storage:
Before reconstitution: Store at -20°C to -80°C.
After reconstitution: Refrigerate at 4°C to 8°C
