Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its moisture-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, this product must be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Allow the sealed container to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent moisture ingress.
