Quality Control

Every batch of 13,20-Epoxy-1β,11β,12α,14,15β-Pentahydroxypicrasa-2,4(18)-Dien-16-One undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our quality management system is designed to meet the stringent requirements of research and development applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay results, and chromatographic profiles is provided with each shipment to support your critical research and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent product degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere conditions.
