Quality Control

Our 2-Deoxy-Scyllo-Inosose is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive analytical data, including HPLC purity, identity confirmation by spectroscopic methods, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is supplied with each batch to support your quality assurance and regulatory requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect stability and performance. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
