Quality Control

Our 4-Amino-4-Phenyl-Butyric Acid Hydrochloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and elemental analysis, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
