Quality Control

Our Corosolic Acid is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for nutraceutical and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a low-humidity environment.
