Quality Control

Our α-Ethyl-4-[2-[(1-Methyl-2-Phenylethyl)Amino]Ethoxy]Benzyl Alcohol Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, identity confirmation by IR and NMR, and control of specific impurities. We provide full traceability and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, ensuring compliance with your internal specifications and supporting regulatory filings for pharmaceutical development.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 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. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
