MOTS-c Storage Requirements
Store lyophilized MOTS-c at -20°C (-4°F) for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 2-8°C (36-46°F) and use within 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, as this can degrade peptide integrity. Protect from light and moisture during storage.
