Quality Control

Our 4-Bromophenethylamine Hydrobromide is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity, and is supplied with a corresponding Certificate of Analysis (COA). We are committed to meeting the stringent requirements of research and development applications, with specifications that can be tailored to project-specific needs.

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.
