Biological Activity
Preparation of sections for histochemistry of guanine oxidase in human tissues[2]:
1. Tissue samples were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and 10 µM thick cryostat sections were prepared.
2. After fixation with 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.05 M sodium cacodylate buffer (pH 7.4) at room temperature for 1 hour, sections were rinsed in Bicine buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.8) and incubated with xanthine oxidase at 37°C for 15 minutes, rinsed again in Bicine buffer and incubated at 37°C for 1-2 hours.
3. After rinsing in distilled water, sections were allowed to air dry, dehydrated with graded ethanol, transferred to xylene and mounted in synthetic resin.

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, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.
* 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.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:
It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
