Quality Control

Our Carboxymethyl-Phe-Leu-Oh is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation (IR, NMR) to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are available upon request.

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. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
