Peptide Reconstitution

Step 1: Draw BAC Water

  • Pull air into syringe equal to desired BAC volume.

  • Inject air into BAC vial.

  • Invert vial and slowly draw water.

Step 2: Add Water to Peptide

  • Insert needle into peptide vial.

  • Aim the stream against the glass wall, not directly onto powder.

  • Inject slowly.

⚠️ Do NOT shake.

Step 3: Dissolve Gently

  • Gently swirl or roll vial between fingers.

  • Powder should dissolve within 1–2 minutes.

  • Solution should become clear.

If cloudy or foamy → let it rest and gently swirl again.

 

❄️ Storage

  • Store reconstituted peptides at 2–8°C (refrigerator)

  • Keep away from light

  • Do not freeze unless manufacturer states it’s acceptable

Typical shelf life after reconstitution: 2–4 weeks (varies by peptide)

⚠️ Safety Tips

  • Use new sterile syringe each draw.

  • Never reuse needles or pipette.

  • Discard if solution becomes cloudy, colored, or contains particles.

  • Avoid touching needle or vial stopper.

🚩 Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Shaking the vial

  • Using tap or distilled water instead of BAC water

  • Forgetting to label

  • Guessing doses instead of calculating
