Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-5-(3,4-Methylenedioxyphenyl)Benzoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR, MS), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, assay, and impurity profile is provided with every shipment.

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). This compound may be light-sensitive and hygroscopic; therefore, containers should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere when not in use to prevent degradation and moisture absorption.
