Quality Control

Our 6β,7α,12-Trihydroxyabieta-8,12-Diene-11,14-Dione is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request to ensure compliance with your research or production specifications.

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, prolonged storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) is recommended for optimal long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
