BPC-157 Stability: Storage, Reconstitution, and Degradation Factors in Research Applications
Summary
Lyophilized BPC-157 is highly stable when stored at -20°C, maintaining integrity for years. Once reconstituted in bacteriostatic water (BAC water), BPC-157 should be refrigerated at 2-8°C and used within 4-6 weeks for optimal activity. The peptide's unusual gastric stability—surviving extreme pH conditions—distinguishes it from most peptides, but in solution it remains susceptible to oxidation, hydrolysis, and bacterial contamination. Proper handling, including sterile technique and avoiding freeze-thaw cycles, is essential for research reproducibility.
