Quality Control

Our 1,2-Dihydroxy-5,6-Dimethyl-3,4-Epoxy-1,2,3,4-Tetrahydrochrysene is manufactured under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your research and quality assurance requirements.

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 opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
