Quality Control

Our Eicosapentaenoyl 1-Propanol-2-Amide is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, MS), to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and cGMP-grade manufacturing. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with full traceability are provided for every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen). The product is hygroscopic and easily oxidized; allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
