Quality Control

Our Griseochelin is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification by spectroscopic methods and purity assessment by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming batch-specific results for identity, purity, and related substances.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be stored in a cool, dry place. For long-term stability, storage at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) under an inert atmosphere is recommended. Keep the container tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture.
