Documentation
Confirm vial label and batch CoA details on myukpeptides.com before logging the material into inventory. Record purity, batch/certificate reference, and issue date.
Sealed vial storage
- Lyophilised (sealed): Store cold and dry (−20°C preferred for longer archiving when practical), away from excess light
- Minimise unnecessary openings; protect from humidity
- Allow sealed cold vials to warm before opening to reduce condensation
