Proper Storage Procedures

Lab procedures for receiving, logging, storing and tracking research peptide inventory at 2–8°C and -20°C.

Receiving inspection

On arrival, confirm the package is cold, the seal is intact, and the vial label batch code matches the dispatch note. Photograph anything anomalous before opening.

Logging inventory

Record: compound, batch code, supplier, receipt date, vial mass, storage location, opened date once reconstituted. Tie the entry to its COA PDF in your LIMS or shared drive.

Stock rotation
