Quality Control

Our Chrysobactin is produced under stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability 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 critical quality attributes.

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) and must be kept in a desiccated environment to maintain stability and purity. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
