Quality Control

Our 4-Androsten-17Beta-Ol-3,6-Dione is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, IR, and other relevant methods, to confirm identity and purity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 degradation from atmospheric moisture.
