Storage and Stability:
Store desiccated at -20°C. The solid product is stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Coenzyme A Lithium is soluble up to 50mg/ml in water. It is not stable in aqueous solution and will degrade rapidly when stored in water. A stock solution may be prepared by dissolving in distilled/deionized water or buffer that has been sparged with nitrogen to remove oxygen (heat and/or sonication may be necessary to dissolve the product). The aqueous solution can be stored at 4°C and used within 1 day. It is recommended that the product be dissolved only prior to use.
