Resolved. This thread is closed. Reopening it is fine if new sources appear; please add a new subsection rather than editing the closed discussion.

Preservative-induced aggregation

Benzyl alcohol-induced aggregation is well documented for some proteins. Saying it is molecule-specific and uncharacterised for most research peptides is the honest position. — StabilityStig (talk) 10:30, 25 April 2026 (UTC)

Agreed, and the sentence noting that absence of data is not evidence of compatibility is the right formulation. — PrimarySrcPatia (talk) 14:00, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
