Quality Control

Every batch of 2,6,10,15,19,23-Hexamethyl-2,6,18,22-Tetracosatetrene-10,15-Diol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Our products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C for long-term stability. This compound is easily oxidized and light-sensitive. Allow the container to reach ambient temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
