Quality Control

Our 3-(4-Methylsulfanyl-Phenyl)-Propan-1-Ol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC/GC) and spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request, supporting compliance with cGMP and other relevant industry standards for intermediate use.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
