Quality Control

Our production of Benzeneacetic Acid, 3-Fluoro--α-,4-Dihydroxy-, Methyl Ester (9Ci) adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and development applications. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles. We support compliance with ISO 9001 quality management standards and can provide material suitable for use under cGMP guidelines for pharmaceutical development upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
