Quality Control

Our Dl-γ-Amino-B-Hydroxybutyric Acid Crystalline is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, IR, and titration methods, to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical and research applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and conformance to agreed specifications.

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 opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
