without freezing. Freezing can deteriorate the
reagents, which can produce inaccurate results.
Therefore, avoid using the reagents which have
been previously frozen.
2) Do not use expired reagents. Use of such
reagents cannot guarantee the reliability of
measurement values.
3) Do not perform the assay under direct sunlight
