Quality Control

Every batch of 10-Pahsa is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality management systems. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles, typically determined by advanced chromatographic methods (HPLC, GC) and spectroscopic analysis (NMR, MS). Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the stringent requirements for research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its property of being easily oxidized, long-term storage is recommended under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at temperatures between -20°C to -80°C. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
