Quality Control

Our Asperlin is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and heavy metals. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
