Quality Control

Our 3-Methylsulfinylphenylacetic Acid is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or production specifications.

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 stability and purity.
