Quality Control

Our Poly(γ-Methyl L-Glutamate) is produced under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Quality is verified through a suite of analytical techniques, including spectroscopy and chromatography. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, molecular weight distribution, and other critical parameters is provided with each shipment to support your research and quality assurance protocols.

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, which can affect the material's properties. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccant.
