Quality Control

Our Arabinomannan is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and compliance with relevant standards. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and safety parameters. We support customer-specific quality requirements and can provide material for qualification under cGMP or other regulatory frameworks as needed.

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 opening to minimize moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
