Storage at 2–8 °C: interpreting a specification
A temperature interval needs a named material, physical state and applicable period.

Refrigeration and stability are different facts
A 2–8 °C instruction specifies refrigerated conditions. It does not mean freezing or demonstrate that every peptide is stable within that interval. Stability evidence must match the formulation, container and conditions studied.

Read the sample state as well
A document may distinguish unopened, opened and reconstituted material. If an interval applies only to an unopened product, do not automatically extend it to a prepared solution. Record the condition, duration and documentary source separately.
