Lyophilized CK-18 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored between 2-8° C. Upon reconstitution CK-18 should be stored at 4° C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18° C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized 1mg CK-18 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H₂O not less than 700µl, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. ;
