- Lyophilised (unopened)
- −20°C
- 24–36 months
- Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Each cycle degrades peptides by 5–10%
- Longest stability window; prioritize uninterrupted freezer storage
- Reconstituted (bacteriostatic water)
- 2–8°C
- 28 days
- Minimize out-of-refrigeration time (<15 min per access)
- Standard research protocol duration; bacterial inhibition is the limiting factor
- Reconstituted (sterile water)
- 48–72 hours
- Single-use or immediate multi-dose only; no preservative
- Not recommended for multi-week protocols; contamination risk too high
- Room temperature (post-reconstitution)
- 20–25°C
- <8 hours before significant loss
- Emergency only; return to refrigeration immediately
- Potency loss accelerates 10-fold per 10°C rise; avoid whenever possible
- Frozen (post-reconstitution)
- −20°C or below
- Not recommended
- Ice crystal formation denatures peptides irreversibly
- Common misconception; freezing reconstituted peptides destroys them
- This comparison shows why CJC-1295 no DAC & Ipamorelin storage discipline must shift dramatically at reconstitution. The 24–36 month lyophilised stability window collapses to 28 days once water is added. And that 28-day window depends entirely on consistent refrigeration and contamination prevention. The most common protocol failure point is room-temperature exposure during multi-dose access: researchers underestimate how quickly potency drops when vials sit out during preparation.
