Does 2-methoxyethanol reacts with air?

28 October 2020 1 7K Report

Hello,

I'm trying to use 2-methoxyethanol/Cellosolve to dilute methylumbelliferyl phosphate for phosphatase activity analysis. However, we never used this solvent before. It came with a sure/safe seal. Can anyone help me, pleaaaaase?

Thanks.
