Different preservative agents were studied in order to select the one which may provide a greater time of useful life to reference solutions of uric acid. Stability of solutions in a rank of concentrations from 2 to 10 mg/dL (199-595F mol/L) was investigated keeping them under different conditions of storage: 2-8 EC, room temperature and 37 EC. The best results were observed when using thimerosal as a preservative agent since the correlation coeficient obtained by the analysis of linear regression was found to be higher than 0.9980 during 1 year for the solutions stored at 2-8 EC.
