Preparation and Storage

Store vials at 2°C to 8°C and protect from light. Do not freeze. The beads are stable until the date shown on the vial label when stored as directed. Do not use after the expiration date. After dilution, the beads are stable for 24 hours at 2°C to 8°C or 8 hours at 15°C to 25°C when protected from light.
