Quality Control

Our Ericamycin is produced and tested under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for research purposes. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analysis including identity confirmation, purity assessment, and impurity profiling. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are provided and available upon request to support your regulatory and research documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and stored in a dark environment to maintain stability and potency.
