Quality Control

Our L-Tyrosine, 3-Hydroxy-o-Methyl-, Methyl Ester, Hydrochloride is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation (IR, NMR) to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric humidity.
