Quality Control

Our Laricitrin is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC and NMR, for comprehensive identity confirmation and impurity profiling. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, confirming compliance with our stringent specifications. For research requiring specific pharmacopeial standards (e.g., USP, Ph. Eur.), please contact our technical team to discuss custom synthesis and qualification.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation, especially after the container has been opened. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
