Quality Control

Our 2-(3-(Methoxycarbonyl)Phenyl)Acetic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive analytical data, including HPLC/GC purity, identity confirmation (IR, NMR), and residual solvent analysis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is supplied with each shipment, detailing all specifications and test results. Our quality protocols are designed to meet the stringent requirements of GMP and ISO standards for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under dry conditions to prevent product degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
