How can we store ABTS+ solution longer?

08 August 2015 1 6K Report

ABTS+ solution can store 2-3 days at room temperature. How can we extend the shelf life of ABTS+ solution?

Thanks for any help.

The life time of ABTS+ depends on the ratio ABTS+/ABTS. Keep this ratio low and store your stock solution in the fridge.
