General Information
BACKGROUND/TECHNICAL INFORMATION To change the solvent, evaporate the ethanol under a gentle stream of nitrogen and immediately add the solvent of choice. Addition of Triton X-100 will enhance the solubility significantly. The critical micellar concentration of Arachidonoyl Thio-PC is 2mM in 8mM Hepes (pH 7.4), 150mM NaCl, 10mM CaCl2, 4mM Triton X-100, 30% glycerol and 1mg/ml BSA.
