Quality Control

Our Tuftsinyl-n-Hexylamide is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and MS for identity confirmation, to meet the stringent requirements of research and development applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results 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 or as indicated on the label or COA. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under desiccant to prevent moisture uptake. For long-term storage, consider keeping the product under an inert atmosphere.
