			The Poly-A Control Dil Buffer comes in one big bottle of 3.8 mL and it is inconvenient to freeze/thaw each time since it freezes when stored at -20°C. What do you recommend and can you change the packaging so the buffer comes in smaller aliquots?

			Since the number of samples processed each time may vary drastically at different customer sites, we have decided to provide the Dil Buffer in one bottle. Upon receipt, users are encouraged to thaw the buffer, and then aliquot it in more convenient volumes for long-term storage based on their own usage rate.
