Abstract:
1. A method for preserving the activity of one or more biologically active molecules in a dried and reconstituted state, comprising: a) depositing the one or more biologically active molecules onto a surface; b) depositing one or more non-sugar organic compatible solutes onto the surface, wherein said one or more non-sugar organic compatible solutes are each selected from the group consisting of: glycine, alanine, serine, proline, sodium glutamate, lysine, aminobutric acid, taurine, amines, betaine, sarcosine, trimethylamine N-oxide, 2-Naphthol, ectoine, hydroxyectoine, glycerine, deoxyribonucleic acid, adenosine monophosphate, PCR primers, spermine, spermidine, polyethyleneimine, polyhystidine, polythymadilic acid, acetyl-L-camitine, and L-citruline; and c) drying the deposited one or more biologically active molecules and the deposited one or more non-sugar organic compatible solutes on the surface, wherein the one or more non-sugar organic compatible solutes preserves the activity of the one or more biologically active molecules in the dried and reconstituted state.
