Quality Control

Our 5,6-Dihydroxy-7H-Benz[De]Anthracen-7-One is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and industrial use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability, especially after the container has been opened.
