Questions

  1. Is it ok to store this tablet (sigmafast BCIP/NBT) after being dissolved in water? (in case I couldn't use all 10 mL) If it's ok, which temperature (and other conditions) should I store it?

    1 answer

    1. For best results, it is recommended to use the solution within 1 hour. Long term storage of the solution has not been evaluated. A prepared BCIP/NBT solution is available under product number B6404. This product is prepared in Tris buffer and may be stored at room temperature.
