Is it possible to prepare the additional buffers without the use of sodium azide?

The sodium azide is a preservative preventing the microbial growth in the buffer. It can be excluded from buffers without affecting the performance of the assay. 


Please note that if sodium azide is not included the buffer will not be as stable as stated in the data booklet.
