Quality Control

Our Moth Cytochrome C (Mcc) 88-103 is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including reversed-phase HPLC for purity assessment and mass spectrometry (MS) for identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing batch-specific data for purity, peptide content, and solvent residues is supplied with every order.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a freezer. For long-term storage, consider lyophilized powder stored desiccated at -20°C. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture absorption. Solutions should be prepared in appropriate buffers and used immediately or aliquoted and stored frozen for short-term use.
