Quality Control

Our Methyl 1-O,3-O,4-O,5-o-Tetramethyl-β-D-Fructopyranoside is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by NMR and IR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical characteristics, and chromatographic data 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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to exclude moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
