Quality Control

Our Alanine, 3-(p-Bromophenyl)-2-Methyl, Ethyl Ester is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation (IR, NMR) to ensure it meets exacting research and process development standards. Comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place 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. Keep away from incompatible materials.
