Quality Control

Our Ucn-01 is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting all relevant specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under anhydrous conditions to maintain stability and potency. Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
