Quality Control

Our Dl-α,α'-Diaminosuccinic Acid is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters such as assay, chiral purity, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the stringent requirements for research and commercial synthesis applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability, though short-term storage at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) is acceptable.
