We want to administer daily injections of VCD in our mice for 20 days. We noticed that VCD (Sigma-Aldrich, 94956) must be stored under inert gas, and do not have a setup for this right now. The literature does not show solution prep and Sigma-Aldrich has not done any solubility or solution testing of VCD. The plan is to make a stock solution of VCD in sesame oil, opening the vial once, and store daily aliquots in the refrigerator.
Any thoughts on this? Pros and Cons?
