Quality Control

Our Cyanidin-3-o-Arabinoside Chloride is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (UV-Vis, MS). We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, which includes batch-specific data on purity, related substances, and residual solvents. Our quality commitment ensures the material is suitable for use as a high-grade analytical reference standard.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C. This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept sealed under inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) when possible and allowed to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture uptake.
