Abstract
A method for storing a tetrazolium compound stably is provided. The tetrazolium compound is stored in the presence of sodium azide. The tetrazolium compound (A) and the sodium azide (B) are present at a ratio (A:B) in the range from 1:0.02 to 1:6.2. Furthermore, when the tetrazolium compound is stored as a solution, the concentration of the sodium azide is in the range from 0.08 to 3.2 mmol/L and the concentration of the tetrazolium compound is in the range from 0.5 to 8 mmol/L. As the tetrazolium compound, it is preferable to use 2-(4-iodophenyl)-3-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-5-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium salt.
