Quality Control

Our production of Amino-(2-Ethoxy-Naphthalen-1-Yl)-Acetic Acid adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy. We provide full traceability and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring the material meets the precise specifications required for your critical R&D and scale-up processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
