I need to use Trypan Blue solution 0,2% for my research but I can not find a correct formula to do this.

Weigh out the appropriate amount of Trypan Blue powder using a balance. For a 0.2% solution, you will need 0.2 grams of Trypan Blue powder for every 100 milliliters of solution. Dissolve the Trypan Blue powder in a suitable solvent. Trypan Blue is soluble in water, saline, and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). You can choose any of these solvents, depending on your experimental requirements. For example, if you are working with cell cultures, you may prefer to use PBS. Mix the solution thoroughly to ensure that the Trypan Blue powder is completely dissolved. You can use a magnetic stirrer or vortex mixer for this step. Filter the solution through a 0.22-micron filter to remove any particulate matter that may interfere with your experiments.
To prepare a 0.2% Trypan Blue solution from the powder, you will need to follow these steps:
Your 0.2% Trypan Blue solution is now ready for use in your research. Make sure to store it in a clean, dry container, and protect it from light, as Trypan Blue is light-sensitive.
