Quality Control

Our 1-o-Oleoyl-2-O,3-o-Diacetyl-Sn-Glycerol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC, GC) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment, supporting compliance with research and cGMP guidelines for advanced intermediates.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. This material is easily oxidized and light-sensitive; prolonged exposure to air, heat, or light should be avoided to maintain stability and purity.
