Quality Control

Our 2,4-Hexadienal, 5-Hydroxy-, (Z,E)- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Due to its sensitivity, allow the container to reach ambient temperature before opening to minimize moisture ingress and degradation.
