Quality Control

Our D-γ-Tocotrienol is produced and tested under strict quality management systems. Each batch is analyzed to ensure high purity and consistency, with specifications suitable for nutraceutical and research applications. Comprehensive testing includes identity confirmation, potency assay, and impurity profiling. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your regulatory and quality assurance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store unopened containers at -20°C under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent oxidation. Once opened, the material should be used promptly. Keep the container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials.
