Quality Control

Our (5-Amino-2-Methyl-Phenyl)-Phenyl-Methanone Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
