Storage Instructions

All products from Apex Health Performance are manufactured using a lyophilization (freeze-drying) process. This method is designed to maintain product integrity and allows vials to remain stable during shipping for approximately 3–4 months.

Once a vial is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, it should be stored in the refrigerator to help maintain stability. Under these conditions, reconstituted material is generally considered stable for up to 30 days.

Lyophilization is a dehydration technique in which compounds are frozen and then exposed to low pressure. This causes the water in the vial to sublimate directly from solid to gas, leaving behind a stable, crystalline white structure. This powder can be kept at room temperature until reconstitution.

Upon receipt, products should be stored away from heat and light. For short-term use, refrigeration at approximately 4°C (39°F) is suitable. For long-term storage (several months to years), vials may be placed in a freezer at approximately -80°C (-112°F). Freezing is the preferred method for preserving product stability over extended periods.

Involvement of Luteinizing Hormone in Alzheimer Disease Development in Elderly Women.

Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) 2017

Accordingly, a large number of studies have demonstrated that an increase in LH levels is positively correlated with neuropathological, behavioral, and cognitive changes in AD. In addition, LH has been shown to promote amyloidogenic pathway of precursor protein metabolism and deposition of amyloid β plaques in the hippocampus, a region involved in AD.

Doping control container for urine stabilization: a pilot study.

Drug testing and analysis 2017

The mixture consists of antimicrobial substances and protease inhibitors for the simultaneous inactivation of a wide range of proteolytic enzymes. The spray-coated chemical stabilization mixture was tested against microorganism elimination and steroid glucuronide degradation, as well as enzymatic breakdown of proteins, such as intact hCG, recombinant erythropoietin and small peptides (GHRPs, ipamorelin), induced by proteolytic enzymes.

Mapping of HCG-receptor complexes.

Molecular and cellular endocrinology 1996

Molecular forms of the porcine LH/CG receptor (pLHR) and complexes between hCG and either the full-length pLHR or its extracellular domain (ectodomain) have been produced in various recombinant systems. In COS cells and in the baculovirus insect cells system, the co-expression of the ecto- and endo-domains reconstituted a functional receptor where the association of the two domains seems to depend upon the presence of disulfide bridges.

Vaccination for contraception.

The Australian & New Zealand journal of obstetrics & gynaecology 1994

Vaccination for birth control has several advantages over currently available methods of family planning and should prove an attractive addition to the contraceptive armamentarium both in developing countries and in a developed country such as Australia. Concerns have been voiced by consumer health advocates that vaccines, like other long acting contraceptive methods, may be abused by health authorities in developing countries and by their use in vulnerable groups such as aborigines in our own c

Biological markers during early pregnancy: trophoblastic signals of the peri-implantation period.

Environmental health perspectives 1987

The peri-implantation period extends from the time the blastocyst is free in the uterus, through the processes of recognition and attachment, to the beginning of trophoblast differentiation and the interactions between the embryo and the uterine endometrium which initiate establishment of the hemochorial placenta. It is during the peri-implantation period that the embryo and hormonally regulated endometrial cells appear to be most sensitive to factors which introduce risk into the intrauterine e

Placental proteins in the diagnosis and evaluation of the "elusive" early pregnancy.

Obstetrical & gynecological survey 1985

For many many years much time and effort has been invested to identify, purify, and quantify markers of significant reproductive events. The search for such markers has been recently intensified with the widespread acceptance of IVF and ET as a treatment regimen for the management of certain causes of infertility. Now it is possible to monitor ovarian folliculogenesis and time of ovulation, successful fertilization, and subsequent nidation and the ensuing pregnancy. Following successful fertiliz

Frequently Asked Questions

Essential information about our research-grade peptides and quality standards.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, typically consisting of 2-50 amino acids. They serve as the building blocks of proteins and play crucial roles in biological processes.

Research peptides are synthesized versions of naturally occurring peptides, manufactured to precise specifications for use in scientific studies.

Key characteristics: High purity (≥98%), lyophilized form for stability, accompanied by Certificates of Analysis (COA), and manufactured under strict quality control protocols.

Peptide purity refers to the percentage of the target peptide present in a sample, measured via High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).

Our Standard: All our research peptides maintain ≥98% purity, verified by third-party laboratory testing and documented in our Certificates of Analysis.

Higher purity is critical for research because impurities can interfere with experimental results and compromise the reproducibility of studies.

All products are supplied in lyophilized powder form within sterile, sealed vials. This format provides:

  • Maximum stability: Extended shelf life compared to liquid solutions
  • Precise measurement: Researchers can work with desired quantities
  • Contamination protection: Sealed vials prevent environmental exposure
  • Shipping durability: Powder form is more stable during transit

Lyophilized peptides:

  • Store at -4°F for long-term storage (up to 24 months)
  • Store at 36-46°F (refrigerated) for short-term storage (up to 3 months)
  • Keep away from light, moisture, and repeated temperature fluctuations

We supply research-grade peptides to:

  • Academic and university research laboratories
  • Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies
  • Independent research institutions
  • Licensed professionals conducting legitimate scientific research

We maintain rigorous quality control through a multi-step verification process:

  • HPLC Analysis: Every batch tested to verify ≥98% purity
  • Mass Spectrometry: Molecular weight confirmation for peptide identity
  • Third-Party Testing: Independent laboratory verification
  • Sterility Protocols: Aseptic handling and packaging procedures
  • Batch Documentation: Complete traceability from synthesis to delivery

"Research Use Only" (RUO) is a classification indicating that a product is intended exclusively for laboratory research and experimental investigation.

All orders are shipped with research-grade handling protocols:

  • Packaging: Insulated containers with cold packs when required
