Quality Control

Our Calcium Phenylglyoxylate is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications and industry standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
