soluble in organic solvents. In case of organic compunds forst
cuvette should washed with acetone atleast 6-7 times, again acid
wash with dil HCL and then thorough rinsing with milli-q water.
Acetone is agin good for final washing but it hasto be very pure.
After washing away acid, use glass distilled acetone and air dry in
dust free place.
