Storing Foxo4 Dri: Best Practices
Lyophilized Powder
Store at -20°C or lower to maintain stability. The lyophilized form is highly stable due to D-amino acid composition. Keep sealed, away from moisture and light.
Reconstituted Solution
Dissolve in PBS (Phosphate Buffered Saline) or sterile water. Prepare stock solutions at 2 mM or 5 mg/mL. Keep reconstituted solutions on ice and use promptly. Aliquot stock solutions to prevent freeze-thaw cycles which may degrade the peptide despite its protease resistance.
Handling
White lyophilized powder, typically supplied as a TFA (trifluoroacetic acid) salt. Purity: ≥95–98% by HPLC. Identity: Mass Spectrometry (~5358.05 Da). The D-Retro-Inverso modification provides exceptional resistance to proteolytic degradation, with intracellular detection up to 72 hours post-administration.
