Quality Control

Every batch of 3-(4-Bromo-2-Chloro-Phenyl)-Propionic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. We guarantee high chemical purity and lot-to-lot consistency through comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles to support your regulatory and R&D requirements.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and handling properties.
