Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Manufacturing and testing protocols are designed to meet the requirements for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications where applicable. Key parameters such as viscosity, ionic composition, and microbial limits are strictly controlled. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request and provide batch-specific data for identity, assay, and purity.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product performance and stability.
