Quality Control

Our Hydroquinine (Anthraquinone-1 4-Diyl) is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic intermediates. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
