Storage & Handling
- Storage Information
• Under proper conditions, aqueous glutaraldehyde solutions may be stored for extended periods of time with no adverse effects. The material should be stored at or below room temperature whenever possible in order to minimize decomposition. Glutaraldehyde solutions show no change in concentration after one year storage at 25°C and 37°C.
• Handle Bionix® GA50 in well ventilated areas and wear appropriate protective equipment for the task. At a minimum, this includes proper gloves, splash-proof chemical goggles or both safety glasses with side shields and a wrap-around full-face shield, coveralls and boots.
