- Unreconstituted (lyophilized powder)
- 12–24 months
- −20°C to −15°C
- Store in original sealed vial; avoid freeze-thaw cycles; protect from light and moisture
- Optimal for long-term storage. Peptide remains stable in solid state with <2% degradation annually
- Reconstituted with bacteriostatic water
- 28 days maximum
- 2–8°C (refrigerated)
- Must remain refrigerated at all times; use within 4 weeks; protect from light; do not freeze
- Standard working solution. Bioactivity maintained for 28 days if temperature never exceeds 8°C
- Reconstituted with sterile water (non-bacteriostatic)
- 7 days maximum
- Higher contamination risk; use within 1 week; refrigeration mandatory; single-use vials preferred
- Not recommended for multi-dose protocols. Bacterial growth risk increases significantly after 7 days
- Temperature excursion (>10°C for >2 hours)
- Immediate degradation
- Above 10°C
- Irreversible protein denaturation occurs; solution may appear clear but bioactivity is compromised
- Discard immediately. No recovery method exists; appearance does not indicate potency
- Frozen reconstituted solution
- Permanent loss of activity
- Below 0°C
- Ice crystal formation disrupts hydrogen bonding and tertiary structure
- Never freeze reconstituted peptides. Lyophilization cannot be reversed at home
