Quality Control

Our Hesperetin is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for high-grade applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, heavy metals, residual solvents, and microbiological parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, prolonged exposure to light, air, or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain stability and potency.
