Quality Control

Our L-Histidine Mono(3-Phenylpyruvate) is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing the specific results for purity, chiral purity, and related substances is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research specifications.

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 degradation from atmospheric moisture.
