Quality Control

Our 2,2',4,4',5,5'-Hexahydroxy-7,7'-Dimethyl-1,1'-Bi[Anthracen-10(9H)-One] is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (HPLC), related substances, and physical characteristics is provided with each shipment. We support cGMP compliance for advanced applications.

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 degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
