Quality Control

Our (3R)-2,3,4,5,6,7,8,8A-Octahydro-6α,8Aα-Dimethyl-3α-(1-Methylethyl)Azulen-3Aα(1H)-Ol is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity assessment by HPLC and structural confirmation by NMR/IR, to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for research and synthesis applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at 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 or an inert atmosphere.
