Quality Control

Our (E,E)Farnesoic Acid is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to confirm identity, purity, and conformance to specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (by HPLC), isomer ratio, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and support your R&D and production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at -20°C or below to minimize oxidation and degradation. For long-term storage, keep at -70°C. Allow the container to reach ambient temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
