The effect of autoclave on glycerol, EGTA and LiCL?

30 May 2022 1 9K Report

I have three solutions (glycerol, EGTA and LiCL) that were already autoclaved, and I intend to use those in ChIP experiment .. My question to you is does autoclave affect the ingredients of those mentioned buffers?

I appreciate your help
