Quality Control

Our 3-Penten-2-One, 4-Mercapto-3-Methyl-, (3Z)- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopic identification (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, minimize headspace in containers and avoid prolonged exposure to air, heat, or moisture.
