Quality Control

Our 4-(9-Adenyl)-D-Erythro-2,3-Dihydroxybutyric Acid is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (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 desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
