Quality Control

Our Glucose is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure it meets the rigorous demands of pharmaceutical and food-grade applications. Each batch is tested against relevant pharmacopeial standards (USP/EP/BP) and food chemical codes (FCC) for identity, purity, and safety. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a 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 caking and degradation from atmospheric moisture.
