Quality Control

Our Redox Protein, Methanobacterium Thermoautotrophicum is produced and handled under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and activity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assessment of specific activity, purity profile, and absence of contaminating proteases. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, activity (U/mg), and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to support your research and development requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store frozen at -20°C or below. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
