Quality Control

Our Shizukaol C is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification and spectroscopic methods (NMR, MS) for structural confirmation, to ensure identity, potency, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are provided with every shipment. We support research and development with material that meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical and analytical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept in a desiccated environment to maintain stability and purity. For long-term storage, consider inert atmosphere conditions.
