The datasheet that came with my product states that solutions need to be made fresh and should not be stored. I do not need to use the entire vial at one, but the amounts needed are to small to weigh out in solid form. How can I handle this?

In many cases such compounds can be dissolved in a volatile solvent, the solution aliquoted in amounts suitable for a single day's use, and then the solvent evaporated off. This type of method allows you to store the material as very small amounts of solid (far smaller than could be weighed out) which can then be dissolved as indicated on the datasheet when you are ready to use them. If you have questions about whether this technique will work for your situation, or would like help choosing a suitable volatile solvent for the compound you are working with please contact technical support, and we will be happy to provide individual guidance for your particular situation.
