| Description: | Xanthine is a plant alkaloid found in tea, coffee and cocoa that acts as a mild central nervous system activator. Xanthine is also an intermediate of the purine degradation pathway. |
| 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. |
