Quality Control

Our 2,7-Dihydroxy-4-Isopropylcyclohepta-2,4,6-Trien-1-One is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay, related substances, and residual solvents, supporting compliance with cGMP and relevant industry standards for research and production use.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, prolonged storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended for optimal long-term stability. Keep away from incompatible materials.
