Quality Control

Our 3-Methoxyphenethylamine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the highest standards of purity and identity. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to ensure supply chain integrity and product traceability.

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 after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
