Quality Control

Our Vitexin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification and identity confirmation by IR and UV spectroscopy, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for research and commercial use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
