Quality Control

Our S-(2-Hydroxy-3-Buten-1-Yl)Glutathione is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). For long-term stability, consider storage under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen, as the compound is easily oxidized. Keep the container tightly sealed to minimize exposure to moisture.
