Adding the part of the answer the thread has not reached. Freezing is the one to avoid, and freeze-thaw more so. Ice-crystal formation and the concentration changes at the phase boundary drive aggregation, and aggregated peptide does not recover on thawing. A vial that has been frozen and thawed is not rescued by returning it to the fridge.
