Quality Control

Our D-Mannose, 4-o-Methyl- is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are available for every shipment upon request.

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 sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
