Quality Control

Our 5-[1-Hydroxy-2,6,6-Trimethyl-4-Oxocyhex-2-En-1-Yl]-3-Methyl-[2Z,4E]-Pentadienoicacid is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and spectroscopic identification (NMR, IR, MS), to ensure it meets precise customer specifications and research-grade standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to light and oxidation, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
