Thank you very much for providing this protocol. Is PDB saturated solution soluble in H2O? PDB seems to be insoluble in water.

Yes. It dissolves sparingly in water. To get saturated solution you need to add sufficient amount of solute in water, stirr it overnight, filter the solution and use it. But remember it is highly carcinogenic. So use all necessary precautions.

Thank you for the quarry, Dear YC T. Yes, simply water. You can store 1g in 1ml for overnight (RM) and filter it for later use because it is insoluble in water (magenta colour eppendorf tube).
