Quality Control

Every batch of 9,11-Methane-Epoxy Prostaglandin F1α is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and pharmaceutical applications. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including identity confirmation by spectroscopic methods and purity assessment by HPLC, to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are available upon request.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed in a desiccated environment and away from direct light exposure to maintain stability and purity.
