Quality Control

Our Cholest-8(14)-Ene-3,15,26-Triol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification (IR, NMR), purity assay (HPLC), and impurity profiling to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
