Quality Control

Our Baumycins is produced and handled under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development purposes. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for purity, assay, and related substances is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (typically 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 desiccants or inert atmosphere.
