Quality Control

Our n-(1,5-Dihydroxypentan-2-Yl)Benzamide is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and KF titration for moisture content. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or production specifications. For cGMP-grade material or custom purity requirements, please contact our technical team.

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 hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
