Quality Control

Every batch of 2-(Tetracosane-1-Yl)-3-Hydroxy-23,24-Methylene-41-Oxo-42-Methylhexacontanoic Acid is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific batch results for identity (IR, NMR), purity (HPLC), and related substances are available upon request.

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 nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases, oxidizing agents, and reactive metals. Ensure containers are kept tightly sealed to prevent contamination and moisture uptake.
