Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request. For this high-purity biochemical, quality is assured through advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry to confirm identity and purity, meeting the exacting requirements of research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation and degradation. Allow the container to reach room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation. For long-term storage, consider solutions in a suitable organic solvent at -80°C.
