Quality Control

Our Lactivicin is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for research applications. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and other critical parameters. We adhere to high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical research, with specifications available for review.

Storage

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