Reproducible lab steps reduce user error and enhance data quality. This includes standardized mixing times, consistent reagent use, and proper storage.
Minimizing Degradation Over Time
Frozen aliquots, inert gas packaging, and vacuum sealing each help keep peptides stable. Overexposure to light or oxygen can degrade them quickly.
Selecting Reagents Wisely
Pick solvents that do not damage the peptide chain. Ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, or specialized buffers serve to keep the peptide intact.
