Quality Control

Our β-D-Lyxofuranose, 1,5-Anhydro-5-C-Hydroxy-, (5S)- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis to confirm stereochemical integrity, and spectroscopic identification (NMR, IR, MS). Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatograms and spectral data are provided to ensure traceability and compliance with research and cGMP guidelines for advanced intermediates.

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. For long-term storage, consider inert atmosphere packing.
