Quality Control

Our (+)-δ-Cadinene is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high chemical purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as identity, assay, and optical purity. Our quality systems are designed to meet the stringent requirements of research and industrial applications.

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 light and oxidation, prolonged exposure to air and light should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
