Quality Control

Our Paecilomyces varioti cultures are produced under controlled conditions to ensure genetic stability, purity, and viability. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing for microbial identity, contamination, and activity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, strain verification, and spore count (where applicable) is provided to guarantee consistent performance for your specific application.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term viability, store lyophilized cultures or spores at recommended temperatures (typically 2-8°C). The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles for liquid cultures. Always follow aseptic handling procedures.
