Quality Control

Our Rutinose is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to ensure identity, purity, and consistency, meeting the stringent requirements for research and production use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific test results for parameters such as assay, optical rotation, and impurity profile are provided and available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area 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 absorption of atmospheric moisture.
