Quality Control

Our 5-Methylcoumarin-4-Gentiobioside is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods (NMR, MS) for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurities is provided with every shipment.

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 to prevent absorption of moisture.
