Quality Control

Our 7,12-Dimethyl-11-Fluorobenz[A]Anthracene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency for your critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, handling and storage should minimize exposure to direct light.
