Quality Control

Our 2'-Hydroxygenistein is produced under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and MS, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for research and development use. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your quality requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation.
