Quality Control

Our 6-o-Vanilloylajugol is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization, including HPLC for purity, and structural confirmation via MS and NMR, to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing batch-specific data is supplied with every order.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C or as indicated on the label or COA. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept sealed in a desiccated environment to maintain stability and purity.
