Quality Control

Our C14:1-Delta9-cis-(L)-Hsl is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and other critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize condensation and exposure to atmospheric moisture.
