How long after mixing with water is creatine good for?

I researched this myself because I needed a stable calibrator or a creatine assay I was developing for a trial on creatine from genetically modified yeast. Creatine dissolved in water had a half life of 12 hours at room temperature. At 4 C (fridge temperature), -20 C (freezer temperature) it was also 12 hours. read more
