Peptide storage
Storage depends mostly on whether the peptide is still powder or already mixed with water.
Powder (lyophilised)
Unmixed powder is usually kept in the freezer for long-term storage or the fridge for shorter periods, sealed and away from light.
Mixed with BAC water
Once mixed, keep the vial in the fridge at 2 to 8 °C. About 28 days is the common working window. Avoid freezing a mixed vial.
When to throw it away
Discard a vial that turns cloudy, changes colour, has particles, or was left warm for a long time.
