Quality Control

Our Ubiquinone is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets stringent specifications for identity, purity, and potency, aligning with relevant pharmacopeial standards (e.g., USP, EP, JP) where applicable. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
