Quality Control

Our 7-Amino-Heptan-1-Ol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay (HPLC), identification (IR), and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for industrial and research applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity and specifications is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation.
