When storing a capillary after use, follow these simple instructions to increase the capillary life.
1.Filter all solutions to be used on your capillary with .45µ or .2µ filter.
2.Rinse the capillary with .1M NaOH solution for 5 minutes.
3.Rinse the capillary with CEwater or CE grade water for 5 minutes.
4.If possible, blow nitrogen or helium through the capillary prior to storage.
