Quality Control

Our Epinecidin-1 is produced under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, peptide content, and analytical data are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry environment. Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening and to allow vials to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture uptake.
