Quality Control

Our (S)-(-)-1-(4-Chlorophenyl)Ethylamine Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity (enantiomeric excess) and chemical purity assays, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed HPLC, NMR, and optical rotation data are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent exposure to atmospheric moisture, which can affect product stability and performance.
