Quality Control

Our Dops is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC, GC) and spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for all shipments, confirming compliance with agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled 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. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere to minimize oxidation.
