Quality Control

Our Ara-Cdp-1-S-Hexadecyl-2-o-Palmitoyl-1-Thioglycerol is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable, and our quality systems are designed to meet the stringent requirements of pharmaceutical R&D and production.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials.
