Quality Control

Our production of 2-(2,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-3-(3,7-Dimethyl-2,6-Octadienyl)-5,7-Dihydroxy-6-(3-Methyl-2-Butenyl)-4H-1-Benzopyran-4-One adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity for research and development applications. All products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and MS, to verify identity and potency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and analytical methods is provided with each shipment.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended for optimal stability. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
