Quality Control

Our Technical Grade Selenosulfuric Acid Dipotassium Salt is produced and tested to ensure consistent quality suitable for industrial applications. While not meeting pharmacopeial standards, the product undergoes analysis to confirm identity and assess key parameters like selenium content and impurity levels. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing lot-specific results is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. As the compound is easily oxidized, it is recommended to minimize headspace in opened containers and consider storage under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation.
