Quality Control

Our Dycal is produced and tested under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Quality control includes rigorous analytical testing for identity, purity, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting compliance with agreed specifications are provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
