Quality Control

Our Fa-Gly-Phe-NH2 is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR/IR for structural confirmation. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting all critical quality attributes.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
