If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

Application
- Enhanced antimicrobial fibers: Succinic anhydride is utilized in the conjugation of chitosan with Harakeke and Hemp fibers to produce antimicrobial fibers, which significantly increase their utility in medical and hygiene products (Barker et al., 2024).
- Antitumor diterpenoids: Succinic anhydride is integral to synthesizing new clerodane diterpenoids from Callicarpa pseudorubella, which show potential antitumor proliferative activity, expanding its applications in cancer research (Pan et al., 2024).
- Nanogel delivery systems: It plays a role in developing nanogel delivery systems for cationic peptides, enhancing the delivery of therapeutic agents and showcasing its versatility in pharmaceutical delivery systems (Mørck Nielsen et al., 2024).

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
