Quality Control

Our 3,4-Dihydro-3,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-Methyl-6-Methoxyanthracene-1(2H)-One is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation of quality. Keep away from incompatible materials.
