Quality Control

Our 2,3-Dimethyl-5-solanesyl-1,4-benzoquinone is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and heavy metals. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP-grade specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at 2-8°C to minimize oxidation and degradation. For long-term storage, keep the material frozen at -20°C or below. The container should be kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials.
