Quality Control

Our (Rs)-β-Amino-β-(4-Bromophenyl)Propionic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral purity assessment, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
