Quality Control

Our Histidinal is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
