Quality Control

Our 5,7,4'-Trihydroxy-8-Methoxyflavone is produced under a rigorous quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through comprehensive analytical techniques including HPLC, NMR, and MS. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your research and compliance needs.

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 nature and propensity for oxidation, prolonged exposure to light, heat, or air should be avoided. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere.
