Quality Control

Our D-Glycero-L-Manno-Octonic Acid, 2,6-Anhydro-3-Deoxy- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and pharmaceutical development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and purity. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
