Quality Control

Our 1,2,8-Trihydroxy-3-Methylanthraquinone is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets precise customer and research-grade specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, prolonged exposure to light, air, or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
