Quality Control

Our (3S,3Aβ,7Aα)-3A,4,5,6,7,7A-Hexahydro-6β-Vinyl-4β-Hydroxy-7α-[1-(Hydroxymethyl)Ethenyl]-3,6-Dimethylbenzofuran-2(3H)-One is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research applications. All materials are characterized by advanced analytical techniques including NMR, HPLC, and MS. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation.

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 opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
