For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, and not for human or veterinary use. Handle in accordance with the Safety Data Sheet and your institution's chemical hygiene plan.
In Vitro
| Solvent | Solubility | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| DMSO | ≥ 100 mg/mL (121.02 mM) | use freshly opened DMSO (absorbed moisture lowers solubility) |
Aliquot the stock solution and store it at -80°C (up to 6 months) or -20°C (up to 1 month); avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

In Vitro
Microfluidic mixing encapsulates VZV gE mRNA in a lipid mixture solution that combines Ionizable lipid-2, DSPC, cholesterol, and other components. Compared with cationic lipids III, IV, and V, the resulting LNP-mRNA vaccine achieves greater encapsulation efficiency, together with suitable average particle size, PDI, and Zeta potential[1].
