Quality Control

We maintain a rigorous quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Our products undergo comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and elemental analysis, to verify identity and potency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment and is available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and handling properties.
