Quality Control

Our 4-Ethylthiophenyl-(5-Methyl-2-Furyl)Methanol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and chiral analysis where applicable, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation.

Storage

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