Quality Control

Our D-2,4-Diaminobutyric Acid Dihydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity verification by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, specific rotation, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and purity.
