Quality Control

Our Rac-12-Bis(Heptanoylthio)Glycerophosphocholine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and MS for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and moisture. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing all relevant specifications to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or development protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation. For long-term storage, desiccate to minimize moisture uptake. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to avoid condensation.
