Quality Control

Our o-Ethylfusarubin is produced and handled under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity determination, to meet the stringent requirements of research and development applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results 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). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation and to minimize exposure to air upon opening.
