Quality Control

Our Diammonium D-Glucarate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for all shipments. Specifications can be aligned with customer requirements for pharmaceutical, food-grade, or technical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent absorption of moisture from the air, which can affect product quality and flow properties.
