Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to
24 months(2-8C).
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20C. Generally, these will be useable for up to two weeks. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the natural compounds adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.

Citromycin, a new antibiotic. I. Isolation and characterization.[Pubmed:
4978096]
A new antibiotic, Citromycin, was isolated from cultures of two strains of Streptomyces. It was concluded to be a new water-soluble, basic antibiotic related to the streptothricin-like group. The isolation and purification as well as the physical, chemical and biological properties of the antibiotic are described. The differences of Citromycin to various new streptothricin-like antibiotics are examined and discussed.

Citromycetins and bilains A-C: new aromatic polyketides and diketopiperazines from Australian marine-derived and terrestrial Penicillium spp.[Pubmed:
17958395 ]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Chemical analysis of an Australian marine-derived isolate of Penicillium bilaii, collected from the Huon estuary, Port Huon, Tasmania, yielded the known fungal aromatic polyketides citromycetin (1) and Citromycin (2) together with two dihydro analogues, (-)-2,3-dihydrocitromycetin (3) and (-)-2,3-dihydroCitromycin (4). An Australian terrestrial isolate of Penicillium striatisporum collected near Shalvey, New South Wales, also yielded citromycetin (1), Citromycin (2), and the new dihydro analogue (-)-2,3-dihydrocitromycetin (3), together with fulvic acid (5), anhydrofulvic acid (6), and a selection of new methoxylated analogues, 12-methoxycitromycetin (7), 12-methoxyCitromycin (8), (-)-12-methoxy-2,3-dihydrocitromycetin (9), and 12-methoxyanhydrofulvic acid (10). P. bilaii also yielded the rare siderophore pistillarin (11), the known diketopiperazines cyclo-(L-Phe -L-Pro) (12), cyclo-(L-Pro-L-Tyr) (13), cyclo-(L-Pro-L-Val) (14), and cis-bis(methylthio)silvatin (15), and three new diketopiperazines, bilains A-C (16-18).
CONCLUSIONS:
The structures for the Penicillium metabolites 1- 18 were assigned by a combination of detailed spectroscopic analysis, including correlation with relevant literature data, chemical derivatization, degradation, and biosynthetic considerations. The Citromycin polyketides 2 and 4 and the diketopiperazine 15 were weakly cytotoxic.
