Well, one thing you can do is to dissolve it in HBSS (Hank's Buffered Salt
Solution). I guess it really depends on what you want to add it to.
You could look at the Materials and Methods section of some other papers where
MK-801 is used and see how they prepare it. I just typed in MK-801 into
medline and got back 2238 references...
