Quality Control

Our n-Me-Phg-Oh is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for advanced synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data (HPLC, GC) and specific rotation values are provided to guarantee consistent quality and 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. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
