Quality Control

Our 2-[3-(tert-Butoxy)-4-Ethoxyphenyl]Acetic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request, supporting your regulatory and quality assurance needs.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
