Quality Control

Our Coprogen is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets high-grade standards suitable for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided for every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption and degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
