Quality Control

Our Fumifungin is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for research purposes. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identity confirmation and purity assessment via advanced chromatographic methods. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting critical quality attributes. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our clients in regulated development environments.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, this material should be stored under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place. Recommended long-term storage temperature is between -20°C to -10°C. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
