How to Store Research Materials Correctly

Proper storage is an important part of laboratory handling. Research materials should always be stored according to the manufacturer’s stated requirements and the information provided with the product.

Factors such as temperature, light exposure, moisture and handling conditions may need to be considered. Researchers should also keep products properly labelled and maintain relevant batch and documentation records.

Always refer to the product-specific storage information and applicable laboratory procedures before handling or storing any research material.
