Quality Control

Our D-2,5-Dichlorophenylalanine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity verification by HPLC, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and production. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and specific impurities 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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation.
