Quality Control

Our (E/Z)-2-[2-Cyclohexyl-2-(4-Hydroxycyclohexyl)]Vinylpyridine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and diastereomeric ratio determination, NMR for structural confirmation, and Karl Fischer titration for moisture content. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP guidelines, as required.

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 under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials.
