Quality Control

Every batch of 2-Tetradecanoylaminohexanol-1-Phosphocholine is manufactured under controlled conditions and undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our quality system is designed to meet the stringent requirements of research and pharmaceutical development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (typically by HPLC), identity confirmation (by NMR/MS), and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your regulatory and R&D documentation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to minimize oxidation and hydrolysis. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be allowed to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation. For long-term stability, store desiccated.
