Talk:TMPD

From Bioblast

Preparation of 200 mM stock

TMPD (C10H16N2*2HCl): Sigma T 3134, 5 g, store at RT; FW = 237.2.

1) Weigh 47.4 mg TMPD
2) Dissolve in 1 ml H2O
3) Divide into 0.2 ml portions
4) Protect from light!
5) Store frozen at -20 °C

Caution: Light sensitive (store solution in a dark glass vial). Take care to minimize light and temperature exposure during use!

It is important to add Ascorbate before TMPD to avoid uncontrollable autoxidation. Ascorbate maintains TMPD in a reduced state. Electrons flow from TMPD to cytochrome c.
