Quality Control

Our Prostaglandin A1 is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming specifications for identity, purity, and related substances.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation. For long-term storage, keep desiccated.
