Quality Control

Our (1R,8Aα)-1,4Aβ-Dimethyl-7β-(1-Hydroxy-1-Methylethyl)Decalin-1α-Ol is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including GC, HPLC, NMR, and optical rotation measurement to ensure high chemical and chiral purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, assay, impurity profile, and specific rotation are provided to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and suitability for sensitive applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
