Quality Control

Our Neohop-13(18)-Ene is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis (GC/HPLC) and structural confirmation (NMR, MS), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting purity, identity, and relevant physical data.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to maintain stability and purity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
