Quality Control

Our [3-Amino-5-(Trifluoromethyl)Phenyl]Methanol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and production use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity, the container should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to prevent oxidation and moisture absorption. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
