Quality Control

We maintain a rigorous quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity. Our products undergo comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to verify identity and assay. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with each shipment. We can support development projects with custom purity grades and analytical method development upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
