Quality Control

Our Hmt1 Protein, Methanobacterium is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and biological activity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided, detailing results for purity (by SDS-PAGE and HPLC), protein concentration, and functional activity assays. We adhere to high-purity research-grade standards suitable for sensitive biochemical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store the lyophilized powder at -20°C or below for long-term stability. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed under inert atmosphere or desiccant after each use to prevent moisture uptake. For short-term use, store at 2-8°C.
