Quality Control

Our Glutaurine is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment. We support compliance with relevant guidelines for pharmaceutical and cosmetic ingredient manufacturing.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
