Quality Control

Our 1,2-Di-o-Tetradecyl-3-o-α-Sialylglycerol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical characterization to ensure identity, purity, and consistency, meeting the exacting standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as purity (by HPLC), structural confirmation (by NMR and MS), and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); allow the sealed container to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize condensation and moisture uptake.
