Quality Control

Our 1,6,7-Trihydroxy-3-Methoxy-9H-Xanthen-9-One is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. We provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all specifications and test results to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize headspace in opened containers.
