Quality Control

Our Zinc o-Acetylsalicylate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, heavy metals, and loss on drying. Our quality commitment supports applications requiring high standards, including pharmaceutical development and nutraceutical production.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
