Quality Control

Our Flavofungin B is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic and spectral data are provided to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent moisture absorption and degradation. For long-term storage, consider inert atmosphere packing.
