Quality Control

Our Dehydrolysine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for all shipments, ensuring compliance with your research and production standards.

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. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
