Quality Control

Our (2E,4E,6E,8E)-3,7-Dimethyl-9-(2,2,6-Trimethyl-7-Oxabicyclo[4.1.0]Hept- 1-Yl)-2,4,6,8-Nonatetraenoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC, NMR, and MS to ensure identity, purity, and conformity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency for your critical R&D and production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Keep away from oxidizing agents. Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, minimize exposure to air and light during handling.
