Quality Control

Our 5α-Androstane-3α,7α,17β-Triol is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable, and our quality protocols are designed to meet the stringent requirements of pharmaceutical R&D and fine chemical synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
