Quality Control

Our Pyrromycin is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification by spectroscopic methods and purity determination by HPLC. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with our stringent internal specifications.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
