Quality Control

Our Ec 5.3.2.1 is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is characterized for critical parameters including specific activity, purity (by SDS-PAGE and HPLC), and stability to ensure performance consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing these specifications are provided with every shipment. Production can adhere to relevant guidelines for in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) or research-grade applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
