Quality Control

Our Eicosadienoic Acid (5Z,14Z) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for research and industrial use. 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. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation. Allow the container to reach room temperature in a desiccator before opening to minimize moisture absorption.
