- To simplify your MOTS-c storage planning, we've put together a quick comparison of the most common methods, outlining their pros and cons.
- Lyophilized (Dry)
- Powder
- -20°C to -80°C
- Years
- Maximum stability, minimal degradation
- Requires reconstitution before use, risk of moisture ingress if not sealed
- Refrigerated (Solution)
- Reconstituted
- 2°C to 8°C
- Days to 1 week
- Ready for immediate use, simple
- Limited stability, prone to degradation over time, bacterial growth risk
- Frozen Aliquots (Solution)
- Weeks to Months
- Good stability, avoids repeated freeze-thaw cycles
- Requires thawing, risk of degradation with each thaw, container considerations
- This table should offer a clear perspective on which MOTS-c storage approach best suits your immediate and long-term research needs. Remember, context matters, and your specific experimental design might dictate one method over another for optimal MOTS-c storage.
