Quality Control

Our D-Altrose-1-13C is manufactured under strict quality systems to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity suitable for sensitive research applications. Each batch is characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry to confirm isotopic enrichment at the specified position and chemical identity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, isotopic enrichment, and analytical data 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 (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
