Quality Control

Our Androsta-3,5-Diene-3,17β-Diol Bis(Heptafluorobutyrate) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting purity, assay, and related substance profiles.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept sealed in a dry environment and away from direct light exposure to maintain stability and purity.
