Quality Control

Our 2',4'-Dihydroxy-7-Methoxy-8-Prenylflavan is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, MS), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a freezer (-20°C) is recommended for optimal stability.
