Pharmaceutical-grade: the USP product from makers like Pfizer/Hospira is the reference standard, but as an end user it usually means a prescription or a pharmacy, and bottle sizes often run larger than a research setup needs
aliquot and freeze at 20 C for extended storage Protect from light (wrap vial in aluminium foil or store in amber container) Label with peptide name, concentration, reconstitution date, and expiry Do not store at room temperature for extended periods (increases degradation risk) Aliquoting for Long-Term Storage Divide reconstituted solution into single-use aliquots (e.g., 100 L per tube) Freeze immediately at 20 C or 80 C Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles (causes peptide degradation and aggregation) Thaw each aliquot once and use immediately
This was demonstrated by the fact that administration of the peptide counteracted 5-HT receptor-dependent symptoms induced by pargyline + L-tryptophan, i.e., hyperthermia and wet dog shake related to 5-HT2A agonism, but not 5-HT1A-related forepaw treading, hind limb abduction, or hypothermia
