Quality Control

Every batch of Icariside I is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality management protocols. We provide comprehensive analytical documentation, including HPLC chromatograms and full spectral data (UV, MS, NMR), to verify identity and purity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, related substances, and residual solvents is supplied with each shipment to ensure it meets the rigorous standards required for research and development.

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 hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment to maintain stability and purity.
