How to store Thymalin
Practical storage protocol for Thymalin: temperature, light, reconstitution timing, and shelf life in a research setting.
Lyophilised (freeze-dried) storage
Unreconstituted Thymalin, like most research peptides, is stable when stored in its original sealed vial at -20°C for long-term storage. For short-term use (under 3 months), refrigeration at 2-8°C is acceptable. The vial must be protected from direct light and moisture.
Peptify dispatches Thymalin in temperature-tolerant packaging from the UK, usually arriving within 24-48 hours of dispatch.
After reconstitution
Once Thymalin is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water (BAC water, 0.9% benzyl alcohol), the solution should be stored at 2-8°C (refrigerated) and used within 28 days. Bacteriostatic water's preservative system inhibits microbial growth for roughly four weeks after first puncture — significantly longer than sterile water, which must be used immediately.
Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Never leave the vial at room temperature for extended periods, and keep it in its original rubber-stoppered vial to minimise contamination risk.
Shelf life and quality verification
Peptify publishes a batch-specific expiry date on every Thymalin COA, alongside HPLC chromatogram data and mass spectrometry confirmation. The full Certificate of Analysis for your specific batch is downloadable from the product page.

Frequently asked questions
What is Thymalin used for in research?
Thymalin is studied for its ability to restore thymus function and regulate immune responses, particularly in aging-related immune decline.
How does Thymalin differ from Thymosin Alpha-1?
Thymalin is a multi-peptide thymic extract studied in the broader bioregulator literature, while Thymosin Alpha-1 is a single 28-amino-acid peptide with a defined sequence. Researchers select between them based on the specificity required for their protocol.
What purity standard does Peptify Thymalin meet?
Peptify Thymalin is 99%+ HPLC-verified with an independent third-party Certificate of Analysis from Janoshik Analytical, downloadable directly from the product page.
