Quality Control

Our Hemoglobin Setif is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols. Each batch is characterized to ensure identity, purity, and functional activity, with specifications tailored for research and in-vitro diagnostic use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (by HPLC), methemoglobin content, electrophoretic profile, and spectroscopic properties is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C (refrigerated) or as indicated on the label. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; prolonged exposure to air, moisture, or light should be avoided to maintain stability. For long-term storage, consider lyophilized (freeze-dried) forms under inert atmosphere.
