Quality Control

Our (Z)-Oct-2-En-4-Ol is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopy (IR, NMR), to verify identity, purity, and isomeric composition. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all critical quality parameters to ensure it meets your specific research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, minimize exposure to air, heat, and direct light sources. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
