Quality Control

Our 1,4-Diaminoanthracene-9,10-Diol is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (HPLC), related substances, and physical characteristics are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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 light-sensitive nature and propensity for oxidation, prolonged exposure to light and air should be minimized. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere.
