Quality Control

Our Marcellomycin is produced and handled under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are provided to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation. Allow the product to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to minimize moisture uptake.
