Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. We provide material with a typical purity of ≥95% (by HPLC), tailored to meet specific research requirements. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request. Our quality management system supports the needs of research and development-focused customers.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability, especially after opening the primary container. Keep away from incompatible materials.
