Quality Control

Our production of L-Lysine Mono(1,2,3,6-Tetrahydro-2,6-Dioxopyrimidine-4-Carboxylate) adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral assays, to ensure it meets exacting standards suitable for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
