Quality Control

Our 1H-Indole-7-Carboxaldehyde, 6-Hydroxy- is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize headspace in opened containers.
