Quality Control

Our 4-(3-Hydroxy-5-Phenylpentyl)-2-Methoxyphenol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay purity and identity.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider the use of desiccants.
