Quality Control

Our 4α-Hydroxy-5β-Methyl-3-[(E)-11-Dodecen-1-Ylidene]-4,5-Dihydrofuran-2(3H)-One is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR). We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all specified parameters to ensure it meets your research and development 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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
