Quality Control

Our Viridomycin A is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including purity assay and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting batch-specific results 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 (typically 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 desiccants or inert atmosphere.
