Quality Control

Our γ-L-Glu-D-Ala is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identification by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, and we can support compliance with cGMP, ISO, and other relevant quality standards for our clients' specific project needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment and away from direct light exposure to maintain stability and purity.
