Quality Control

Our 2-Hepten-4-Ol is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) for every shipment, detailing key parameters such as identity, assay, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment aligns with cGMP principles where applicable, and we are prepared to meet specific customer requirements for research or industrial grades.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) and minimize headspace in opened containers to preserve quality and prevent degradation.
