Quality Control

Our D-Ribo-Hexonic Acid, 2,5-Anhydro-3,6-Dideoxy-, Methyl Ester (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and spectroscopic identification (NMR, IR), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and desiccated after opening to maintain stability and purity.
