Quality Control

Our Iproheptine is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification by spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), purity assay by HPLC, and control of related substances. We ensure compliance with relevant internal specifications for research and pharmaceutical intermediate use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Keep away from heat and incompatible materials. For long-term storage, consider inert atmosphere conditions to maintain optimal stability.
