Quality Control

Our Vasotocin, 1-Deamino-4-Lys(Azidobenzoyl)-8-Arg- is produced under stringent conditions to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency, suitable for sensitive research applications. All batches undergo comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, mass spectrometry for identity confirmation, and amino acid analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry environment. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be allowed to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere.
