Quality Control

Our Acetyl-Pepstatin is manufactured under strict quality systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity, typically ≥95% (HPLC). Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification (IR, NMR), purity assay (HPLC), and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry environment. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent moisture absorption.
