Peptide in solution

[Yvonne Couch]

Hi all,
Thanks for the brilliant advice and this seems silly now but I don't know
how I would go about lyophilizing a peptide, can anyone help?
Cheers again!
Yvonne

I would concentrate the peptide in a "Speed-vac": you freeze it and 
then put it in a centrifuge under vacuum, the solvent will evaporate, 
but the PBS salts will be concentrated along with the peptide.  
Otherwise, you could lyophilize the peptide and re-dissolve it with 
H2O, to whatever volume you like.
