Quality Control

Our 2,3-Di-o-Acetylglyceroaldehyde-2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazone is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for research and analytical applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) providing batch-specific data is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption.
