Quality Control

Every batch of Corycavine is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Our products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and MS, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency meet the high standards required for research applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere conditions.
