Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 75 mg/mL (428.23 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
H2O : 6 mg/mL (34.26 mM; Need ultrasonic)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.

Protocol
Mice[2]
Randomly bred Swiss mice (male and female, body weight 13-25 g for the first series of experiments) are housed under standard environmentally controlled conditions. For another series of experiments, young Swiss mice 7, 14 and 21 days old are used. Injections of Guanidinosuccinic acid suspensions are delivered in volumes of 0.1 mL per 10 g body weight, i.p. and in doses between 250 and 1000 mg/kg (5 mice per dose, in duplicate). After injection, the mice are put in individual cylindrical transparent cages and observed for 1 h (for 2 h in the case of the young mice). Both CD50 and LD50 are calculated by probit analysis or moving average interpolation[2].
