Quality Control

Our .Beta.-D-Glucopyranuronic Acid, Ethyl Ester, Tetraacetate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical characteristics, and spectroscopic data 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 hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and handling properties.
