Quality Control

Our Meso-A-A-Dimercaptoadipic Acid Disodium is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, assay, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment. For long-term storage, consider maintaining the product under an inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation.
