Quality Control

Every batch of 5-cis-8-cis-Tetradecadienoyl-Coa is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure identity, purity, and consistency for sensitive research applications. Our quality assurance includes comprehensive analytical testing via HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay results, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your regulatory and research documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; prolonged exposure to air, moisture, or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain stability and purity. Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening.
