Quality Control

Our 5-Methoxy-6-Methyl-2-Aminoindan is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of our global clientele. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting purity, assay, and impurity profiles.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
