Formulation
Stability
Peptides of this class are sensitive to extreme temperatures and hydrolysis. Acetylation provides slightly better stability against enzymatic degradation; add below 40°C during the cooling phase.
Conflicts
- Strong oxidizers
- Strong acids (below pH 4.0)
- Strong bases (above pH 8.0)
- Proteolytic enzymes
