Quality Control

Our 10-Hydroxyanthrone is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and related substances, to meet the stringent requirements of our global clientele. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided and available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize headspace in opened containers.
