Quality Control

Our 4'-(Aminomethyl)-Biphenyl-2-Carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry, to ensure high chemical purity and structural integrity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are provided with each 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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and purity. Keep away from incompatible materials.
