Quality Control

Our n-[2-(Dihydroxyamino)Ethyl]-n-Hydroxyglycine Sodium Salt is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay, identification, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for research and industrial applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or maintaining the material under an inert atmosphere to minimize oxidation.
