IGF-1 (AA vs NaCl)

Im talking the long igf-1 from Lion.

Now it comes with NaCl. What exactly is the difference between using AA (acidic acid) and NaCl?

Buddy of mine told me he'd rather make his own AA than to use NaCl because using AA will keep it more potent and last longer.

AA will keep the IGF I beleive for up to year if im not mistaken but still has to be refridgerated. The NaCl solution that Lion provides is perfect for a months use (1mg). AA stings like a b*tch as well so thats a downfall.

Will be stable witth both for several years at room temp without light exposure, the aa will cerate a more acidic enviroment which is better against bacteria and also makes the peptide more water-soluble, which means it won´t adhere to the glass vial or syring walls that much, so one would get more bang for the buck and a better measurement of what amount one´s putting in one´s body.

Might sting though.

Cyclodextrines are the best imho, as they build water-soluble and stabelising complexes with the more fragile parts of peptides.
