Quality Control

Our production of (S)-2-Chloro-1-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)Ethanol adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high enantiomeric purity. Each lot is characterized by advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, GC, and chiral analysis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, chiral excess, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment, supporting cGMP and ISO quality management principles for our global clientele.

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 under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
