Quality Control

Our Benzenemethanol, α-(((1,1-Dimethylethyl)Amino)Methyl)-2-Hydroxy-, (+-)- is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent chemical identity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, chiral purity (if applicable), and impurity profiles are provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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 to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
