Research and Development
Apurun Inc. is at the forefront of lipid innovation, driven by a dedicated R&D team. We engage in ongoing research to enhance the functional properties of SM lipids, ensuring they meet the evolving needs of the scientific community. Our collaborations with leading academic and industrial partners enable us to bring cutting-edge solutions to market, fostering advancements in lipid-based applications.
Quality Assurance
Our SM lipids undergo stringent quality control processes to ensure the highest standards of purity and consistency. Each batch is accompanied by a certificate of analysis (CoA), detailing chemical composition, purity, and other critical parameters. This rigorous quality assurance ensures that our products consistently meet or exceed industry standards, providing reliable performance for our customers.
Shipping and Delivery
Our SM lipids are shipped in frozen condition on dry ice to ensure their stability and integrity during transit. We partner with reliable carriers such as UPS, FEDEX, and DHL to provide express shipping globally, typically delivering within 1-3 days. This ensures that our products reach our customers promptly and in optimal condition.
Storage and Handling
Upon receipt, SM lipids should be stored at -20°C or lower to maintain their stability and functionality. Proper handling techniques should be employed to avoid contamination and degradation. Our detailed handling guidelines ensure that our products retain their high quality and efficacy throughout their shelf life, supporting consistent experimental and industrial outcomes.
