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.

Reversal of doxorubicin resistance by hydrophobic, but not hydrophilic, forskolins.[Reference:
WebLink]
The plant diterpene forskolin reverses acquired resistance to doxorubicin in variants of the murine sarcoma S180 cell line.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Because forskolin is known to elevate intracellular cAMP levels, investigations were performed to determine whether this reversal of resistance resulted from effects on signal transduction. Two analogues of forskolin(Forskolin G), dideoxyforskolin, which does not elevate cAMP, and a water-soluble analogue, were also investigated. Although all three diterpenes elevated levels of either cAMP or protein kinase C, these effects were not consistently associated with reversal of doxorubicin resistance. Likewise, all three diterpenes were capable of displacing [3H]azidopine from P-glycoprotein, but reversal of doxorubicin resistance was observed only with forskolin and dideoxyforskolin, suggesting that binding to P-glycoprotein may be a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for reversing doxorubicin resistance.
CONCLUSIONS:
The hydrophobicity of the compounds appeared to be the single factor most consistently related to reversal of doxorubicin resistance in this cell system, with the hydrophilic compound water-soluble forskolin failing to produce this result, even at concentrations 10-fold higher than effective concentrations of the hydrophobic diterpenes.
