DSG is an NHS-ester that hydrolyzes easily and is moisture-sensitive. For optimal results, we recommend storing DSG powder desiccated at 4 degrees C. To avoid moisture condensation onto the product, the vial must be equilibrated to room temperature before opening. We recommend resuspending DSG in DMSO, Anhydrous (Cat. No. D12345) right before use and not storing the solution.
