Quality Control

Our 5-Methoxystrictamine is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods (NMR, MS) for structural confirmation. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, documenting all critical quality attributes. Our quality system is designed to support research and development requirements, with specifications that can be aligned with your specific project needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
