Quality Control

Our Cepafungin I is produced and tested under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization, including identity confirmation and purity assessment via advanced chromatographic techniques. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to support your regulatory and quality documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect stability and performance.
