Quality Control

Our Dl-Isoserine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data (HPLC) are provided for every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your internal quality protocols.

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 each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product stability and handling properties.
