Quality Control

Our Digenea Simplex, Ext. is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch is tested to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) that detail key parameters such as assay of marker compounds, heavy metals, microbial limits, and residual solvents, adhering to relevant industry guidelines for botanical ingredients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 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 moisture absorption, which may affect stability.
