Quality Control

Our Glycerophosphate Calcium Salt is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and composition. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided with every shipment, detailing results for key parameters such as assay, heavy metals, and microbiological limits. We can supply grades compliant with relevant standards, including Food Chemical Codex (FCC) and pharmaceutical monographs, upon request.

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 opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
