Research Peptide Reconstitution Guide

Before opening your package, carefully inspect the contents. Verify that you received the correct peptide vial(s), Bacteriostatic Water (if ordered), and syringes/supplies (if included).

The lyophilized peptide should typically appear as a white or off-white dry cake attached to the bottom of the vial. Minor cracks or slight shrinking of the cake are normal and may occur during the freeze-drying process.

Choose a clean, dry surface away from food, pets, or contaminants.

Before handling your materials:

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
• Gather everything you'll need before starting (Lyophilized peptide vial, Bacteriostatic Water, sterile syringe, alcohol wipes).
• Avoid touching sterile needles or the rubber stoppers with your fingers.

Using a fresh alcohol wipe, clean the rubber stopper on both the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial.

Allow both stoppers to air dry completely before inserting the needle.

Tip: Repeat this step every time you access the vial after reconstitution.

Using a new sterile syringe, slowly draw the desired amount of bacteriostatic water.

Before proceeding: Remove any large air bubbles and avoid touching the needle. If the needle contacts any non-sterile surface, replace it with a new sterile needle immediately.

Insert the needle through the vial stopper. Slowly inject the bacteriostatic water so it flows gently down the inside wall of the vial rather than directly onto the lyophilized powder.

This gentle technique helps preserve the integrity of the peptide. Take your time—there is no need to rush this step.

Do not shake the vial. Shaking can create excessive foam and may damage delicate peptide structures.

Instead: Gently swirl the vial, or slowly roll it between your fingers if needed, and allow the peptide to dissolve naturally.

Some peptides dissolve within a few minutes, while others may take a little longer. The finished solution should appear clear and free of visible particles. Small bubbles created during mixing are normal and will usually dissipate after the vial rests.

Once fully reconstituted:

• REFRIGERATE after use. Refrigerate immediately at 2–8°C (36–46°F).
• Store the vial upright whenever possible.
• Protect it from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
• Avoid repeatedly removing the vial from refrigeration for extended periods.
• Do not freeze after reconstitution unless your research protocol specifically requires it.

Tip: Write the reconstitution date on the vial or storage container for easy reference.

Each time before drawing from the vial: Wipe the rubber stopper with a fresh alcohol pad, allow it to dry completely, and inspect the solution.

The solution should be clear, free of particles, free of discoloration, and free of cloudiness. If anything appears abnormal, discontinue use and contact our support team.

Using a new sterile syringe, draw the required volume according to your research protocol.

Before administration: Remove any large air bubbles, avoid touching the needle, and never reuse a syringe or needle. Using fresh sterile supplies each time helps maintain product sterility.

Administer according to your established research protocol using appropriate sterile technique.

After administration: Dispose of syringes and needles in an approved sharps container, return the vial to the refrigerator promptly, and minimize the amount of time the vial remains at room temperature.
