Quality Control

Our Glyceryl Glycyrrhetinate is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity, to ensure it meets the high standards required for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and relevant impurities is available for every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

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 after opening to prevent moisture absorption and maintain product integrity.
