Quality Control

Our Lead(II) Citrate Trihydrate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and conformance to specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing the results for key parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at 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.
