Quality Control

Our 4-(4-Benzoylanilino)-4-Oxo-2-Butenoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR). We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production 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 (typically 15-25°C). This material is light-sensitive (store away from light) and may be hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.
