Quality Control

Our 17Beta-Hydroxy-17-Methylandrosta-1,5-Dien-3-One is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting the specific results for your quality assurance records.

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 each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
