Ever question whether those lyophilized peptides really last for years at room temperature, or do they degrade right away?
shared this little group study from another Telegram group. They took a handful of different peptides, tested them fresh, then left another sample from the batch, let it sit at room temperature and retested months later. There were two lyophilized samples, one tested originally and the other tests n number of months later. Here's what they found: Mots-C (20mg)
- Fresh: 99.55% purity at 21.81mg
- After 8 months at room temp: 99.07% purity at 22.66mg average
- Basically held steady
TB4 / TB-500 (10mg)
- Fresh: 99.1% purity at 12.32mg
- After 9 months at room temp: 99.39% purity at 12.05mg average
- No meaningful degradation
GHK-Cu (100mg)
- Fresh (April): 99.92% purity at 94.36mg
- After 3 months: 99.96% at 121.30mg (overfilled vial)
- After 11 months: 99.95% at 121.30mg
- Rock solid stability
KPV (10mg)
- Fresh: 99.92% purity at 14.18mg
- After 9 months at room temp: 99.88% purity at 14.84mg average
- Held up great
NAD+ (500mg)
- Fresh: N/A purity listed, 533.57mg
- After 1 year at room temp: N/A purity, 495.46mg
- Some quantity loss but still viable after a full year
The takeaway? These peptides showed remarkable stability sitting at room temperature for extended periods. Obviously refrigeration or freezing is still best practice for long-term storage, but if you're worried about a vial that sat out for a few weeks or months, this data suggests you're probably fine.
Pretty cool to see actual real-world testing rather than just speculation.
