Quality Control

Our α-L-Lyxo-Hexopyranose, 6-Deoxy-5-C-Methyl-, 1-Acetate (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral integrity, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory 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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
