After dilution you need to keep in 4 degree, but I don't think the powder form needs to be in fridge. just protect from light.

It is normally used to stain eukaryotic cells. Why do you ask about bacteria?

because i'm currently on a project to observe biofilm formation by using AO and DAPI. is there any site that i can get more information on DAPI?
