Quality Control

Our 6-Fluoro-6-Deoxy-D-Glucitol Pentaacetate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via NMR and mass spectrometry, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation by atmospheric moisture.
