Quality Control

Our 6-o-Acetylscandoside is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and all relevant specifications is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with research-grade standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation.
