Quality Control

Our 2-Propyl-2-Aminovaleric Acid Ethyl Ester is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity assessment by HPLC, identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, and stringent control of residual solvents and impurities. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation by atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
