Quality Control

Our 1-(Heptadecanoyl)Pyrrolidine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC for purity, GC for residual solvents, and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
