Quality Control

Our 7-Hydroxy-3,7-Dimethylnonan-1-Al is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing including GC, HPLC, and NMR to ensure high purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
