Quality Control

Our 1,4-Dideoxy-1,4-Iminoallitol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and moisture to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are provided for every shipment.

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 a dry, inert atmosphere to maintain stability and purity. Allow the sealed container to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
