107Real products depart from the single-pathway model in documented ways. Peptide degradation proceeds by several routes with different temperature dependences — [[deamidation]] of asparagine, [[Methionine oxidation|oxidation]] of methionine, backbone hydrolysis, disulfide exchange, and physical [[Peptide aggregation|aggregation]] — so the apparent activation energy of total degradation changes with temperature as the dominant route changes. Extrapolation from accelerated conditions to real storage is therefore reliable only over a limited range, which is why ICH stability programmes require long-term data at the labelled condition and treat accelerated data as supporting rather than substituting.{{r|ich_q1a,manning2010}}107Real products depart from the single-pathway model in documented ways.

+109Aggregation is the clearest departure. It is frequently nucleation-dependent, so it exhibits a lag phase and then accelerates, and its rate may be non-monotonic in temperature because the conformational states that aggregate are populated over a limited range. A short excursion that nucleates aggregation can produce consequences that continue to develop after the temperature has been restored, which no rate constant evaluated at the excursion temperature will capture.{{r|manning2010}}

110Cooling a liquid formulation below its freezing point subjects the solute to several distinct stresses, none of which is described by the Arrhenius relationship. Ice formation concentrates the remaining solution — freeze concentration — raising solute and salt concentrations by as much as an order of magnitude and shifting pH where buffer components crystallise selectively. It creates a large ice-water interface at which peptides and proteins adsorb and may unfold. And it may bring the system through a temperature range in which cold denaturation occurs.{{r|bhatnagar2007}}112Cooling a liquid formulation below its freezing point subjects the solute to several distinct stresses, none of which is described by the Arrhenius relationship.
