Quality Control

Our D-Glucitol Dinitrate is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure high purity and stability. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity, residual solvent analysis, and identification by FT-IR and NMR. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications to support your quality assurance protocols. Our quality management system is designed to meet the demands of research and industrial-scale applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its nature as an easily oxidized compound, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong reducing agents.
