Quality Control

Our Penprostene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification by spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), purity assessment by HPLC, and control of specific impurities. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP-grade 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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
