Quality Control

Our Biphenylaceticacid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications for trace metals, residual solvents, and related substances, supporting compliance with cGMP and ICH guidelines for pharmaceutical intermediates.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
