Quality Control

Our Mattacin is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling via techniques such as HPLC, GC, and IR spectroscopy. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are available for every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
