Quality Control

Our 4-Hepten-3-One, 2-Hydroxy-, (4E)- (9Ci) is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR analysis, to ensure high purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, the container should be kept sealed after each use to minimize exposure to air.
