Quality Control

Our 6-Hydroxy-4-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)-7-Methoxy-2H-1-Benzopyran-2-One is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
