Quality Control

Our 1,2-Ethenediol, 1-Amino-2-Phenyl- is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral purity assessment where applicable, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
