Quality Control

Our α,4'-Dihydroxy-3'-Methoxypropiophenone is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity for oxidation, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize exposure to air and moisture.
