Quality Control

Our 3-Hydroxy-n-Methyl-3-Phenyl-Propylamine is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to verify identity and quantify impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, chiral purity (enantiomeric excess), and specific tests is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which may affect product stability and performance.
