Quality Control

Our 6-Fluoro-β-Fluoromethylene-3-Tyrosine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR, MS). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to ensure compliance with your research and development specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area 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.
