Quality Control

Our 6,4'-Dihydroxy-7-Methoxyflavan is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR). We provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all critical quality parameters to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity for oxidation, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability and store under conditions that minimize exposure to air and moisture.
