Quality Control

Our 2-Imiac is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
