Quality Control

Our 5,6-Dihydroxy-2-Methylaminotetralin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, and residual solvent analysis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or production specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize exposure to moisture and air.
