Quality Control

Our (+)-7,13-Abietadiene is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity assessment by GC or HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at 2-8°C or as specified on the label or COA. This material is easily oxidized and light-sensitive; prolonged exposure to air, light, or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain stability and purity.
