The lyophilized protein is stable for a 1 month at room temperature or 6 months at 4 degree C. The reconstituted protein is stable for 1 week at 2 degree C to 8 degree C and 3 months at -20 degreeC to 8 degree c and 3 months at -20 degree C to -80 degree C. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (e.g. 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20 degree C to -80 degree C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
