Quality Control

Our 4-Deoxy-α-D-Chitobiose Peracetate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and moisture. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and results is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP guidelines.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
