Quality Control

Our (+)-Aromadendrene is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, GC-MS, and chiral HPLC, to ensure identity, purity, and enantiomeric excess. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. We support traceability and consistency for research and commercial applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is light-sensitive (store away from light) and easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere). For long-term storage, consider filling the headspace with an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
