| Description: | 6-Mercaptopurine (6-MP) inhibits neopurine synthesis by incorporating methyltransferase metabolites of Mercaptopurine into DNA and RNA. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
