Tips include advice on storing enzyme solution correctly, how to avoid excessive light exposure, and why you should keep light exposure of probes to a minimum.
Watch our video on how to prevent light exposure damage during reagent storage.
When not in use, ensure that the enzyme solution is stored correctly at 2-8°C to preserve the enzyme activity.

Keep light exposure of probes to a minimum as this can cause photodegradation.

Use a working reagent box that you take from the freezer instead of all of the probes to minimise light exposure/freeze thaws. Place the box back in the freezer as soon as you remove the probes you need for the day.

Aliquot probe in to smaller vials to avoid excessive light exposure. Only take the probe to be used from the freezer.
