Quality Control

Our Hemoglobin Ottawa is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay/purity, spectral properties, and moisture content are available for every lot to support your research and compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) or as specified on the label or COA. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric humidity. For long-term stability, consider storage under desiccant or in a dry environment.
