Quality Control

Our α-Putrescinylthymine is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity determination, and is supplied with a corresponding Certificate of Analysis (COA). We ensure compliance with relevant standards for research-grade chemicals, providing full traceability and documentation to support your critical R&D and manufacturing processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
