1. Reconstitution & Dissolution
- Before use, centrifuge the vial briefly to collect all powder at the bottom.
- Add appropriate solvent: ultrapure water, dilute acetic acid or DMSO is recommended.
- Gently swirl or pipette up and down slowly until fully dissolved; do not shake vigorously to avoid peptide denaturation.
- Prepare working solution on demand. Avoid long-term storage of aqueous solution.
2. Recommended Working Concentration
- Antibacterial / Anti-biofilm test: 1 – 10 μM
- Cell experiment (Immunomodulation / Wound healing): 0.5 – 5 μM
- Skin care formulation: 0.1 – 2 μM (formulate per formula requirements)
3. Dilution Steps
Calculate the required solvent volume based on target concentration. Example for reference:
Take 1 mg LL-37 (MW: 4493.33 Da)
- Moles of 1 mg peptide: ≈ 2.2255×10⁻⁷ mol
- To prepare 10 μM stock solution: add 0.022255 L (22.26 mL) solvent
4. Storage After Dissolution
- Stock solution: Aliquot and store at -80°C, valid for 3–6 months.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- Working solution: Use immediately after preparation.
5. Operation Notes
- Wear gloves and masks during operation to prevent contamination.
- Do not use high-salt solution for initial dissolution, which may cause precipitation.
- Keep away from proteases to prevent peptide degradation.
- For in vitro research & formula use only. Not for direct human injection or oral administration.
1. Unopened Lyophilized Powder
- Long-term storage: Seal tightly and keep away from light at -20°C. Shelf life: 24 months.
- Temporary storage: Store at 15–25°C for no more than 7 days.
- Environmental requirement: Keep dry, away from heat sources and strong light.
2. Reconstituted Stock Solution
- Aliquot into single-use portions and freeze at -80°C. Valid for 3–6 months.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to prevent activity loss and peptide degradation.
- For short-term use (1–2 weeks): Keep sealed and shaded at 2–8°C.
3. Working Solution
Prepare and use immediately. Do not store for a long time at room temperature or under refrigeration.
4. Additional Notes
- Centrifuge the vial briefly before opening to prevent powder scattering and moisture absorption.
- Keep away from proteases and high-salt solutions to avoid inactivation.
