Quality Control

Our (E)-Ocimenone is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity. Each lot is analyzed using advanced chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques (GC, GC-MS, NMR) to verify identity, potency, and the absence of unwanted impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to maintain stability and prevent degradation.
