Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-3-(3,4-Dimethoxy-Phenyl)-Propionic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all critical quality attributes to ensure compliance with your research or production specifications.

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 hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
