Quality Control

Our Woodfordin A is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are available upon request.

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 light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) in a freezer (-20°C) is recommended for optimal stability.
