For longer storage, deep freezing at <strong>\u201320 \u00b0C<\/strong> named; the specific details for each batch can be found in the batch-specific <a href=\"\/en\/reading-a-coa\/\">Certificate of Analysis<\/a> or the product documentation.<\/p>\n\n  <h2>The three influencing factors<\/h2>\n  <ul>\n    <li><strong>Temperature<\/strong> Heat accelerates degradation.

Keep the vial closed until it is needed in the laboratory.<\/li>\n  <\/ul>\n\n  <h2>Laboratory handling<\/h2>\n  <p>Handle vials cleanly and at a stable temperature, allow them to equilibrate fully to room temperature before opening (to avoid condensation), and work only in a suitable laboratory environment.<\/p>\n\n  <h2>Bacteriostatic water as a laboratory reagent<\/h2>\n  <p>Bacteriostatic water is sterile water containing a bacteriostatic additive (typically 0.9% benzyl alcohol). As a laboratory reagent, it is also stored in a cool, clean place; relevant quality characteristics include <strong>Sterility<\/strong>, the benzyl alcohol content and the pH value \u2013 not a \u201epurity %\u201c as is the case with peptides.
