Amino Acid Sequence
H-D-Phe-Cys-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr-Cys-L-threoninol
Purity
Greater than 98.0% as determined by RP-HPLC.
Formulation
The Octreotide was lyophilized from a concentrated (1 mg/ml) solution with no additives.
Shipping
At ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store the product at the temperature recommended below.
Storage/Expiration
Lyophilized Octreotide although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Octreotide should be stored at 4°C between 2–7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
