Quality Control

Our 2-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-5-Hydroxy-3,7-Dimethoxy-4-Benzopyrone is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation of quality, especially after opening the primary container. Keep away from incompatible materials.
