Quality Control

Our 2-Furanacetic Acid, 5-Formyl- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and identity confirmation. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research and production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
