SS-31 is supplied as a lyophilized powder, and handling follows the general principles described in this library's bacteriostatic water and lyophilized-peptide reconstitution guide.
General handling notes
As a small aromatic-cationic peptide (see its chemistry article), SS-31 is generally handled with gentle mixing, sterile technique, and prompt refrigeration once reconstituted, comparable to handling considerations for the other mitochondrial-research peptide MOTS-c.
Storage considerations
Lyophilized powder remains stable substantially longer than reconstituted solution; the storing research peptides overview covers general cold-chain principles applicable here.
Scope
General laboratory-handling context only. Background is in the SS-31 research overview.
