Quality Control

Our 1-o-Octadecyl-2-Azelaorylglycerophosphocholine is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch is characterized and tested to ensure high purity and structural integrity, with specifications typically meeting research and pharmaceutical intermediate standards. Comprehensive analytical techniques including NMR, HPLC, and MS are employed. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) for long-term stability. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize condensation and moisture uptake. For short-term use, store desiccated at 2-8°C.
