Quality Control

Our 1,2-Dipalmityl(Cellobiosyl(1'--3))Glycerol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectrometry, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and residual solvents to meet the stringent requirements of research and development applications.

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