Quality Control

Every batch of our 3'-Hydroxy-Delta(9)-Tetrahydrocannabinol is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols. We guarantee high chemical purity and identity, supported by comprehensive analytical data including HPLC, GC-MS, and NMR. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with research-grade standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) to prevent oxidation. For long-term storage, desiccate to maintain stability. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
