Quality Control

Our L-Arabinose, 5-(Acetylamino)-5-Deoxy-, Diethyl Mercaptal is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a 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.
