Application in HRR

Ama: Antimycin A (Antimycin A from Streptomyces sp., Sigma A 8674, 25 g, store at -20 Β°C: FW = 540)

Caution: Very toxic!!! Chemicals stored in the fridge or freezer should be allowed to reach room temperature before opening.


Preparation of 5 mM stock solution (dissolved in 99.9% Ethanol):

1) weigh 5.4 mg of Antimycin A into a small glass vial !Difficult to weigh - appears to be hygroscopic!
2) add 2 ml Ethanol
3) divide into 0.2 ml portions OR store in 2 ml glass vial and use subsamples during experiments to avoid contamination of the stock solution
4) store in glass vials (recommendation) at -20 Β°C
