Quality Control

Our Sodium 6-Hexanamidopenicillanate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting standards for pharmaceutical intermediate use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided with each shipment and are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
