Handling freeze-dried peptides properly takes more than the compound itself. Careful reconstitution and storage protect the material and keep results consistent from one experiment to the next.

Bacteriostatic water

Bacteriostatic water is sterile water containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol, which inhibits bacterial growth so that a reconstituted vial can be accessed more than once. It is the usual solvent for reconstituting research peptides.

Consumables

Alcohol pads are used to wipe vial stoppers before each access, and fine-graduation syringes make it easy to measure small volumes of solvent accurately.

Reconstitution and storage

Run the solvent slowly down the inside wall of the vial rather than straight onto the powder, then swirl gently until it dissolves — never shake. The reconstitution calculator works out concentration for any vial size and solvent volume. Keep freeze-dried vials refrigerated and away from light, and label each reconstituted vial with the date and concentration. Browse the full peptide range.
